Well here we are in 2022, I know its been challenge for all of us just to get here but I wanted to thank everyone who has been so supportive of us during these trying times. We couldn’t have survived without each and every one of you. As we look forward to a new year lets all hope that it’s gonna be better than then the one we just said goodby too.
To continue with the monthly series of what to do in your garden, let’s take a look at January. Avoid digging or trampling too much on damp soils as they can become compacted and disrupt root growth. In our colder communities even Del Cerro don’t trim off frost damage until temps warm back up as the damaged area offer some protection to the still healthy plant tissue below. Prune hybrid roses by 1/3 even if they still have some leaves on their branches, as always trim off any dead or damaged branches. Now is also a good time to plant bare root fruit tree. From Point Loma to Del Mar its time to fertilize citrus and do your twice annual pruning while you are at it.
Hopefully these task will help you get back into your garden and allow for some much-needed stress relief and urge you to be hopefully for a happy and heathy 2022.
