1. Have you put down your weed control for shrub beds and lawn? It is time. I use Preen or Snapshot for my shrub beds and non-lawn areas. Although not 100%, these work pretty good and have saved me a lot of time weeding. Read and follow the label. Also, don’t use weed fabric. Over time mulch will decompose and turn into great compost and weed seeds start germinating on top of the weed fabric.
2. Put down your weed control (pre-emergent) on your lawn. If you miss this now, this summer you’ll most likely see an unwelcome friend, Mr. Crabgrass. I use a professional to put this down and I have a relative small yard. It is the best $65 dollars spent. For those that like to do it yourself, Dimension and Treflan are there for you. Read and follow the label. If your yard is mostly a mix of everything, but mostly weeds, you can skip this step.
3. If you are in North Mississippi, start getting your shrub and small tree fertilizer ready. In south Mississippi you can apply now. I will be putting out 13-13-13 on most of my plants that need fertilizer. Not all plants need feeding, but if you notice nutrient deficiencies in your plants, spring is a great time to feed plants. I don’t feed large healthy specimen trees like Oaks because they don’t need it.
4. Before you add your favorite mulch (pine straw or hardwood mulch), remove the old leaves gather up in the shrub beds. Then add your Preen or Snapshot to the shrub beds. Make sure you do not pile up any mulches on the trunks of the shrubs or trees. Mulch piled up on the trunks can cause a slow decline and death in those beautiful plants you planted.
5. Have FUN! Spring is the time to reconnect and enjoy the yard.

P.S. Many azaleas are blooming or getting ready to bloom. Several of you have asked if we can talk about tree pruning when we do the azalea pruning class soon. I will be happy to review how to prune your small trees, including Crape Myrtles during this time. Stay tuned for the date we will meet on the Ole Miss campus.
