The Virginia Pilot’s Gracious Living

One positive and one negative comment.

Mark Weathington’s comment ‘Feed Your Yard’ does not address the timing of the application of fertilizers. Homeowners should check with their extension agent about when to apply fertilizers for different turf species. Warm season grass, late spring and summer. Cool season grass, late summer and early fall. Don’t be misled by the advertisements you see in the paper.

Mary Reid Barrow’s article ‘Plantings Beauty - And Protect’ describes what can be done when City, private groups and volunteers cooperate. I enjoyed participating in this project and I can not wait until it matures. Anyone interested in buffer restoration should make a visit to the site.
