Not too soon to think: SPRING!
YES! It is that time of year again! Time to prune, dormant spray, and plan for additions that go in once the spring has warmed enough to support root growth. Today was VERY cold in the morning. Around eleven, when I went out for the second time to the local school there were only two […]
