Landscape Alaska - Conversations with Alaska Gardeners

After a windy and stormy night, we talk about how to keep infection out of broken or trimmed tree branches. We talk a little about the history of the Treadwell mine, we chat about fertilizing your lawns again and it's time to feed your strawberries. We also talk a little bit about keeping your perennials safe and standing.

#14 - Pruning, Parasites and Fungi

In this episode we start off with a caller wondering how to get rid of smelly mushrooms on a tree, and a little later we talk about other fungi and invasive parasites. It's also that time of year to start pruning, cutting back plants like your rhododendrons, other shrubs, and your bleeding hearts (if they have already flowered). We talk a little about berries and of course, more fertilizing!
