Times-Advocate, 1979-04-18, Page 9Hints on buying trees, shrubs Home gardeners can pre­ vent costly mistakes by selecting trees and shrubs carefully, says Bob Flem­ ing, Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food hor­ ticulturist. First decide whether you want to plant evergreen or deciduous types. Evergreens have winter foliage, and deciduous "plants lose foliage each autumn. If you are considering plants for hedges, remember deciduous plants generally grow faster, and recover faster from damage than evergreens. Deciduous hedges can be pruned back periodically to renew vigor, but evergreen hedges cannot. Buy trees and shrubs from reputable local nurseries. Local nursery staff can help you select plants suitable for local climate conditions. “When selecting deciduous trees or shrubs •which are sold bare root, look for plants with healthy root systems,” says Mr. ' Fleming. “The roots should be brightly colored and plump.” If you can’t examine the roots, look at the plant itself. Check the plant carefully to make sure it is not damaged. “The wood should be brightly colored, plump, and pliable — not brittle,” says Mr. Fleming. Deciduous trees and shrubs can be planted in mid-April as soon as the ground is workable. Evergreens are usually planted a little later, from May to early June. * White, Bone, Camel, Navy and Black * Medium and Narrow Fittings SOFT LEATHERS JOGGERS Just Arrived...
