Plant cool season veggies – kale, broccoli, beets, etc.
Almost too late for some of these crops
Plant hardy perennials
If you haven’t yet, clean up your vegetable garden area
Important to do before you plant because debris can contain insect pests or diseases
Plant new areas of turfgrass
Getting late for this too!
Things to do later:
Plant warm season veggies, like tomatoes
They really do better when night time temps are consistently above 45, about Mid-May
Cleanup landscape beds
Some insects overwinter in stems or leaf litter
If possible, save cleanup until nighttime temps are above 45
Pruning
Its best to prune trees and shrubs during the dormant season, winter
If you must prune wait until leaves have emerged and fully developed
For spring flowering shrubs, prune immediately after flowering
