Lawn & Garden Tips

Irises – Be Careful When You Cut the Leaves

Don’t cut iris leaves after the flowers fade. Leaves carry on photosynthesis and develop nourishment for next year’s growth. Cut off brown tips and remove the flowering stalk down to the rhizome.

Weed Killer – Salt

To keep grass and weeds from growing between stepping stones of your walkway, or in the cracks of your patio stones, sprinkle the stones with a little salt, then sweep it into the cracks. The salt will kill the grass, so be careful not to get it where you don’t want it.

Aerate the Soil

When you are out working in your yard, wear your golf shoes (or soccer shoes, etc.).  This will help to break up the surface, and the grass will grow better.  Well, it works on golf courses, doesn’t it?

Keep Ants Off Peonies

I’ve heard that putting cucumber peelings around the bottom of peony plants will keep ants away.  I wonder if that will keep ants away from other places, as well. . . .hmmm.

By the way, ants are NOT needed to help the flowers open on peonies.
