Fall Gardening...



Want ideas on when to do what in your garden, now that it's Fall? The Common Ground community garden website (arid if not as much so as NM but same latitude and still Southwest) provides three different ways of learning, all under "Garden Tips for Los Angeles County":
  1.  Monthly discussion – Why each month is the best time to do all the different things that need doing.  Each month's information is separated into Edibles, Ornamentals, and General.   
  2. Monthly Checklist – Specific activities and listing of which plants that apply
  3. Six-month Overview – Outline by topics such as soil, irrigation, composting; also includes the monthly checklists at the end.
 Manager and Master Gardener Yvonne Savio also writes about and photographs her Pasadena garden for an every-other-Thursday Southern California Coastal and Inland Valleys Regional Report for the National Gardening Association.  You can subscribe by going to the website and clicking on "Free Newsletters" in the upper left corner.
