It was great listening to Richard Heflebower, Horticulture Resources Agent for USU, give us tips on keeping our shrubs, lawns, and gardens in great shape. November is a great time to fertilize lawns and get them ready to look great again in the Spring. Weeds were discussed and the enjoyment of dealing with them each summer. The ‘sleeping bag’ approach to Palms trees is not recommended as Palm trees don’t exhort their own heat, so covering them does nothing. Putting Christmas lights on them will help keep them warmer even if others think you just don’t want to put down your Christmas lights later in the winter. If anyone would like to be added to Richard’s e-newsletter, let him know by e-mailing him at rick.h@usu.edu
