late march - early april

  • This is the time of year to tend to perennials left up through the winter.  Cutting back this foliage prevents habitat for slugs and disease and gives way for fresh new foliage to emerge.
  • This is also the time to add soil amendments like compost (and/or loam), fertilizer/lime, and mulch
