Dust Off Those Rusty Trowels (Just One Last Time)

Even if you don’t have as much to do as the poster of this photo on Flickr, it’s definitely time to start planning a strategy for jump-starting your garden. Considering that 90 percent of what we planted last year died, we won’t even try to offer any advice. We will tell you what the landscape designer who lives a couple doors down from us told us over the fence last weekend: perennials should be planted at the end of March and annuals at the end of April. Any other timing tips from people with greener thumbs than we have?
