Gardening notes on perennials and annuals care
Perennials should be pressed back into the ground if lifted by frost or replanted. Verbenas are regaining popularity though largely grown as annuals. Delphinium provides a perennial background with tall spikes and color. Seeds germinate best at 45 to 55 degrees ground temperature. Long borders benefit from mixed perennials and annuals with timed flowering. Limit dahlias to one large stalk and plant away from shrubs. For transplanting, stronger plants first to help weaker ones grow through. Use a kitchen fork for transplanting and frequently pick pansy blooms to extend flowering. Pansies, though perennial, are best set out as young plants each spring.
