Gardner's Notes on May Garden Preparations and Planters
May is a hurry up month for gardeners. Planting a new lawn should be finished by month end. Prepare flower boxes, check plastic boxes for drainage, and consider wooden or concrete planters for longevity. Use porous concrete for long lasting color and light care. Ensure proper drainage and good soil with commercial mixes. A public welfare hearing in Waterloo on May 14, 1969 at 7 30 p m will address Seneca County concerns with Rochester officials present.
