CtéilSEDc the examiner Wednesday May 23 1979 Garden Notes No need to rush planting garden By JEAN ABLE Barrie Horticultural Society This is the week when most people feel they should get their gardens planted and if not planted at least get their plants they intend to transplant bought from the nursery There is no great rush We have had killing frosts on June and at the price plants are you can hardly take chances When you pick your annual plants bigger does not mean better small plant with sturdy stem and good healthyrooking leaves will root lot faster and come along quicker than plant with long stem that will likely wilt or bend over Petunias that are not in bloom will do better than those already in bloom People always pick the box of plants with the most blooms but think of the strength the plant mtgï¬put into tha bloom when you want it to develop goo root system to do the season Pinch off the blooms and leave only the buds There should be name on all your boxrplants and usually picture on the label or among thenutsery stock showing what the variety looks like Always moisten your plants before removing them from their boxes Disturb their root system as little as possible It is good idea to water the ground where you are going to plant the night before you plant Then of course water well By CLAUDIA KRALSE Of The Examiner Bob Stutt says he always has more
