More April Gardening
April showers bring May flowers.... forsythias and daffodils are in bloom... pansies and violas are a treat to plant. Pansies bloom into the summer... and longer with some of the heat tolerant varieties that we have now... violas are perennial and will come back next year... english primose is also a long blooming perennial that will come back if planted in a part sun area with well drained soil... ranunculus can be planted also
Early cold tolerant annuals are osteospermum, diasia, snapdragons, nemesia, stock, dianthus, cosmos, cleome, cornflower, nigella and larkspur,
Prune roses, Epsom salts will perk them up. Lightly scratch a half-cup into the soil around each plant.
Stake peonies before they start to flop over
Prune forsythia after they bloom
