1 WMGA Newsletter... in honor of Evelyn Isbell May 2018 Hello my Gardening Friends, I hope since the Spring Plant Sale you are getting some much-needed rest! Ha, who am I kidding! We all know Master Gardeners do not rest when the weather is perfect outdoors. If you are like most people you are busy with a garden, weeding your flower beds and making some wonderful plant selections for your yard. Let s not forget about our lawns. There is always something for us to do. If you run out of things to do in your yard we have plenty of things to do at the Botanical Gardens and Landmark Park. Speaking of the gardens, we have a few projects on our to do list. We will have work days and I encourage you to come help. If you cannot work outdoors, please consider calling people for work days. We need to have a team working on the pot rack. If you have ideas on how we can make our pot rack better, please come share. We need some new ideas! We need help in our shrub area. Phyllis needs a shady area built in her area while it is nice outside. The summer is just around the corner. We are teaching a Junior Master Gardener class at the Botanical Gardens. It will be a short course over the summer. We are set to teach boys and girls at Aunt Katie s Community Garden during the summer. Teachers have signed up, but we do need assistants. Please sign up to help! I am very grateful for all the volunteers we have in Wiregrass Master Gardeners Association. I wish you all could have been at our State Conference in Birmingham. With it being in May there are graduations, weddings and other events going on keeping people away. This Conference was held all in one place. It was a little pricey but well worth it. The tours I took on the first day were awesome. I was on the bus going to three different gardens. The first one was Railroad Park. It is on 19 acres filled with ponds, walking trail and plenty of flowers. I was able to identify a plant no one on my bus knew. The next stop was Floss Furnace. We visited Grandmother s Garden. All heirloom plants were put in raised beds. The roses were sweet smelling and the mulberries were delicious. Our last stop was Jones Valley Teaching Garden. This is a huge operation and plenty of volunteers. They work with the schools and provide herbs and vegetables along with teaching the children. Other groups were touring the Birmingham Botanical Gardens and Aldridge Gardens. All the gardens on the tours can be seen. Please check out these beautiful gardens the next time you visit Birmingham. By the way the plant is a Rudbeckia Goldstrum also known as a Black Eyed Susan. Speaking of plants, we need to replenish some of ours for our Fall Plant Sale. Before you know it, September 15th will be upon us. If you need to divide some plants in your yard and share with WMGA give any plant parent a call for a dig. If you dig and bring to the gardens let one of us know. All plant parent contact information is included on the last page of the newsletter.

2 Thank you all for being such a wonderful gardening friend! We have a couple of volunteer opportunities coming up on May 19th and 20th. The Daylily Festival is Saturday May 19th from 10am to 3pm. The festival is free. If you can volunteer let Glenda Heney know. The Dothan Area Botanical Gardens have 2018 Spring Home Garden Tour on May 19th 10am to 5pm and on May 20th 1pm to 5pm.

If so, send it to Chuck McManus (William.mcmanus34@gmail.com) Lunch n Learn-Pest Control Don t miss our next Lunch n Learn program. Grab a friend and bag lunch and meet us at the Houston-Love Memorial 12 noon June 12th. Please take note of this new date. Drinks are provided. Thanks to Carol Hardin and Dale Shaw for planning such great programs. Hydrangeas Colors One really neat thing about french hydrangeas is that their flowers will actually turn color depending on the acidity or the alkalinity of the soil. If you have acid soil, the flowers will turn blue. If you have alkaline soil, they'll turn pink or red. And if your soil's neutral. You'll get half and half. But what if you don't like the color of the hydrangea you had? You got pink, but you wanted blue? All you have to do to change the color of that pink hydrangea to blue is make the soil more acid. And you can do that by getting a bag of garden sulphur, sprinkling it around the bottom of the plant, watering it in, and that will acidify the soil. And you'll get blue flowers, but on the other hand what if you have blue flowers and you really wanted pink? In that case, get yourself a bag of lime, sprinkle around the base of the plant, water it in and it will change the color to pink. Now dont expect the color change to happen over night. It usually takes an entire growing season to work. So what happens if you don't want to go out to the garden center and get a whole bag of sulfur and whole bag of lime what can you do then. Well you can go to the garden center and get these two products. One of them is called color me blue. If you want pink they will have one called color me pink. What if you have a white hydrangea can you change that to pink or blue. No you can not. White ones dont change. 2
3 May Spring Garden Checklist June Fruits and Nuts Continue spray program. Keep grass from around trees and strawberries. Peaches and apples can still be budded. Shrubs Newly planted shrubs need extra care now and in coming weeks. Don t spray with oil emulsions when temperature is above 85 degrees F. Annuals and Perennials Late plantings of bedding plants still have time to produce. Watch for insects on day lilies. Roses Spray or dust for insects and diseases. Fertilize monthly according to a soil test. Container-grown plants in flower may be planted. Prune climbing roses after the first big flush of flowering. Bulbs Summer bulbs started in containers may still be planted. Do not remove foliage from spring flowering bulbs. Do not let seedheads form on tulips and other spring flowering bulbs. Miscellaneous Mulch new shrub plantings if not already done. Avoid drying out new shrub, tree, and lawn plantings. Vegetables Plant heat-loving and tender vegetables. Start cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, and celery in cold frames for the fall garden. Plant tomatoes, peppers, eggplants, and sweet potatoes. Fruits and Nuts Layer grapes and continue spray programs. Thin apples and peaches if too thick. Shrubs Lace bugs may be a problem on azaleas, pyracanthas, dogwoods, cherry laurels, and other shrubs. Water as needed. Fertilize now. Keep long shoots from developing by pinching out tips. Take cuttings from semi-mature wood for rooting. Annuals and Perennials Keep old flower heads removed to promote continued flowering. Plant garden mums if not already in. For compact mums, keep tips pinched out. Watch for insects and diseases. Bulbs Foliage may be removed from spring bulbs if it has yellowed and is becoming dry. Watch for aphids and thrips on summer bulbs. Miscellaneous If scale insects continue on shrubs, use materials other than oils. Set houseplants on porch or outdoors in shade and pay close attention to the need for water. If desired, air layer houseplants. Vegetables Plant beans, fieldpeas, pumpkins, squash, corn, cantaloupes, and watermelons. Plant tomatoes, peppers, eggplants, and sweet potato vine cuttings. 3
