The growing season may be
over but there is still plenty of
work to do in the garden, says
R.F.Gomme, Ontario Ministry of
Agriculture and Food
horticulturist,
Annual flowers often spread
out over the summer, taking over
the grass around flower beds. Use
a sharp spade to trim and
re-shape edges of flower and
shrub beds.
November is a good time to hill
up roses. Bring the soil up around
the crown of the plant to help it
weather the winter, says Mr.
Gomme.
"Some home gardeners may
wish to use mulches around their
tender plants. Soil, peat moss,
sawdust in moderation and
compost will help protect plants
over the winter."
If you have been trimming
evergreens, Mr. Gomme
recommends using the boughs as
mulch around plants.

trunks with repellents containing
Thiram.
Heavy snow can break long
boughs of shrubs and trees. Tie
the boughs together or wrap
trees or shrubs loosely with
burlap.
"Don't use plastic garbage
bags to wrap evergreens. This
causes an even greater flux in
temperature. The worst thing for
plants is freezing and thawing."
