Instinct may tell us to cover spring bulbs that break ground in winter with mulch. Hold off because the mulch can warm the soil and force the bulbs to grow faster.

Ellen said… - Jo Ellen, Hello! I wanted to say a big thank-you for the revised edition of Indiana Gardener's Guide. I had only purchased the book last spring, and consider it among one of my most valuable gardening bibles for Indiana, to date. It sure came in handy while working at a 22-acre plant nursery that included most if not all of the plant representations in the book, so I used it as a reference for a lot of my customers that wanted to know for sure if a particular planting was zoned for this area. I just pulled the book from the shelf yesterday and am gearing up for another full growing season!

What are your strong points in environmental awareness or curiousities? Is there a particular arena or field we could help empower you with?
