    Now where did I put that rake?

    Gardening tools are easy to lose in the yard. Just paint a part of the handle a bright color and you will spot it. Also if someone borrows one or more of your gardening tools you are much more likely to get it back!

     

    Tired of hauling all your garden tools around in a wheelbarrow and having them fall out every time you hit a bump? This is a use for your old golf bag. Use it as a carrier for your garden and yard tools. Put your long handled gardening tools where the woods and irons go and your work gloves and smaller tools in the zippered pockets.

     

    Here's one of the most important yard and garden tips.

    Be kind to your back by standing when weeding or planting bulbs. All you need are tools with long handles which are available through garden supply stores.

Tips For Great Roses 

Little tips that make things easier

It's always best tp plant bare-root roses only when the temperature will not go below freezing and the ground is not frozen.

* Dig a hole twice as wide as the root system.
* Leave a small mound in the middle of the hole to support the roots.
* Place the bud union (where the top meets the roots) level with the top of the hole or a little below if winter is severe.
* Place soil back around the plant and water it in well.
