THE GARDEN

ROSES

Garden roses will now be
growing rapidly, and a
mulch should be applied
round the stems. Hoeing
can be carried out to
destroy weeds, but do not
dig in the mulching
material.

LAWN CARE

Summer mowing should now be
under way. Twice a week
cutting will be necessary
when the soil is moist.
For weeds use either a
Hormone preparation or Lawn
Sand. Raking before
mowing is important this
month as the combined
action keeps the runners of
clover under control.
