In the Garden Now - a Lake Norman Gardens Monthly Horticultural Calendar
March
1. Now is the perfect time to plan your spring landscape design. Contact our staff Landscape Designer Keith Stallings by calling 704-528-1919.

2. Prune overgrown shrubs and trees. Clean up Perennial beds. Do not prune spring flowering trees and shrubs until after they flower. Inquire about our Winter Cleanup and Selective Pruning Service.

3. Apply pre-emergent weed control for the lawn from now until the Forsythia blooms.

4. Fertilize all trees, shrubs and perennials.

5. Start plants indoors from seed. Most vegetables can be planted 4 to 10 weeks outdoors after seeding.  Outdoor transplanting depends on the weather.

6. After this season’s icy winter, make certain to remove all de-icers (Calcium Chloride) that may still be on sidewalks and drives which can be damaging to plant material.

7. Clean out and put up nesting boxes for the birds. By March 1st, male Bluebirds are scouting for their nest. Put up Hummingbird feeders by March 31st.
