Exclamation of surprise March gardening tips By Loretta Cozart With March just a few days away, many are turning their thoughts to gardening chores. Whether you just mow the lawn, plant an acre garden, or just use pots on the patio, spring garden- ing chores are in your future. In general, Master Gardener Dr. Lucy Bradley, Urban Horti- culture Professor and Extension Specialist at NC State Univer- sity recommends a few basic chores. • Clean up any lingering leaves and dead plant material and refresh mulch in planting beds. • Sharpen and sanitize gar- den pruning tools If you plan to spray, begin a growing-season spray-program for fruit trees, shrubs, and roses. • If you plan to spray, begin a growing-season spray-program for fruit trees, shrubs, and roses. For lawns, Bradley recom- mends the following chores to get your yard ready for spring: • Apply a broadleaf weed killer to lawns in March on warm days according to label instruc- tions. • Apply pre-emergence crab- grass products in March; do not seed or overseed when using them. • Fertilizer: Make last fertil- izer application for Tall Fescue lawns before March 15. • Lightly fertilize bermudag- rass or zoysiagrass in April. Mow tall fescue at 4 inches, bermudagrass at 2, and zoysia- grass at 1 to 2. • During April if you find more than 8 – 10 white grubs per square foot of turf consider using controls to manage the Japanese beetle population and prevent mole issues in the com- ing month. Plant warm-season grasses in May (bermudagrass, zoysiagrass). For ornamentals, Bradley recommends: • Hand-pull winter annual weeds such as henbit, Carolina geranium, speedwell, and chick- weed from ornamental beds be- fore they set seed • In the beginning of March cutback ornamental grasses close to the ground, being care- ful not to prune any new shoots emerging. • Divide perennials in March. • Use lawn alternatives in areas where grass will not grow or is not needed. Mondo grass, pachysandra, ajuga, sedges and sweet woodruff. • Prune spring-flowering plants such as azaleas, for- sythia, and viburnum immedi- ately after they bloom. • Plant annuals after the last frost. Pinch back first flowers. • Maintain a 2- to 3-inch layer of mulch around ornamental beds. • Scout for bagworms on Leyland cypress and junipers in May. • Move houseplants outside after the last frost date if desired. Edibles: • Prepare vegetable beds by incorporating soil amendments, lime, and fertilizer in March ac- cording to the results of your soil test. • Plant cool-season veg- etable seeds and transplants in March, including broccoli, cab- bage, carrots, cauliflower, leeks, lettuces, garlic, peas, potatoes, onions, and radishes. • After the last frost date in mid-April, plant warm-season vegetables like tomatoes, pep- pers, eggplant. Rotate vegeta- ble locations annually to prevent soil-borne pathogens. • Lightly fertilize vegetables about 6 weeks after planting. • Scout for cutworms around vegetables. • Prevent blossom-end rot with consistent watering. Cal- cium sprays may also help. A soil test will reveal any nutrient deficiencies.
