May Planting Guides From Local Nurseries For Spring
Local nurseries Granny's Greenthumb and Sunnyside Nursery advise waiting until the May long weekend to plant to avoid frost. They suggest using greenhouses for early pots, prepping soil now, and employing wind protection like cans or milk containers. Experts recommend peat moss mixtures for clay, Zeolite nutrients, and flexible color choices as gardeners plan varied plantings.

Wildflower garden for shady areas offers eco friendly options
Shady lots can host wildflowers that thrive where other plants fail. Perennials sold as tame wildflowers include columbine, Jacob's ladder, bleeding heart, and more. Prepare deep compost rich beds and plant in informal groups for natural look and resilience. Wildlife can be managed with deer resistant and insect resistant species and organic controls.
