It’s St. Patrick’s Day and it’s Spring Clean Up Time. A general rule for garden clean up is to wait as long as you can; so that beneficial insects such as bees, butterflies, and ladybugs stay sheltered. Also how to identify and save any chrysalises you might find. We talk pruning your shrubby plants with woody stems, as well as perennial and annual flowers. We answer questions about winter sowing cause it’s not too late to do that. Don’t toil in moist soil - not only is it too many “oi” words in a row, it’s not good for your garden. Edith and Christy take turns pouting, the Old Woman in a Shoe is back, and meet Jean and George Gnome.
