April Tips for the Garden! The best time to plant shrubs and trees is on a windless, cloudy day. Once new growth begins on trees and shrubs, cut back to green wood any twigs affected by winter kill. Don’t coat pruning cuts with tree paint or wound dressing. These materials won’t prevent decay or promote wound closure. Prune roses to buds that point outward to encourage good air and sunlight penetration. Dark-colored canes

indicate dead wood. Cut back an inch below these darkened areas. If no live buds are left, remove the entire cane or branch. Prune spring-blooming shrubs, such as forsythia, weigela and early spirea, after they have completed flowering. Hydrangea is one gift plant that transplants well into the garden after its flowers fade. When the weather warms, plant in well-drained soil in full sun to partial shade. Don’t be surprised if the next year’s flowers are a different color than the first year. Blue or pink hydrangea color is dependent on the pH of the soil. Alkaline soil produces pink flowers; acidic soil produces blue flowers. White hydrangeas are not affected by soil pH. If dogwood leaves have been small, sparse and pale, the trees may need fertilizer. Request a soil sample kit from your Extension office and collect a soil sample from the area beneath the trees using instructions provided by your Extension agent. Mail your sample, form and payment to Virginia Tech and correct fertilizer recommendations will be returned with the test results.
