Once you've raked, clean- ed up and prepared your garden and flower beds, it's time to decide what to put i in them. Planting time varies across Ontario. Gardeners in the southern part of the province can usually plant earlier than those in central and northern regions. Start with self-grown or purchased vegetable plants that can withstand a bit of frost, such as broccoli. Also sow seeds of vegetables that germinate in cool soils such as peas and many root Crops. Many seeds, such as peas, beans, carrots, spinach, corn and potato, are best sown directly into the ground. Others, like broccoli, cauliflower, tomatoes and peppers, are best planted as seedlings. In small gardens, select vegetables that yield a lot in limited space, such as let- tuce, onions and snap beans.

It's time to plant your garden among flowers. Herbs such as chives and parsley and fruits such as strawberries make neat borders for flower beds. Carrots and asparagus mix in well with perennials. To ward off insects that may attack your garden vegetables, plant marigolds among your beans, spinach, tomatoes, celery and other crops. The roots of marigolds produce a chemical that can kill some garden insects. Flower Beds Flower beds are most ef- fective when located along the edge of a lawn, alongside a house or driveway, or as islapds in a lawn. Borders should feature tall plants in the background, medium-sized plants in the middle and dwarf plants at the front. Island beds are most at- tractive with tall plants in middle, medium-sized plants on both sides and dwarf plants at the edges. Containers such as large flower pots and wooden bar- rels also make good flowerbeds. These should all have drainage holes at the bottom, which are Turnto Page 6 RE/MAX SCUEOg realty imites MARK PUCKRIN Res.: 705-357-3374 144 QUEEN STREET, PORT PERRY independen* member troker 285-4427 184 OFFICES : THROUGHOUT ONTARIO REDUCED TO $199,900. 1 Acre, 4-bdrms, 3 baths, pool.
