Create gardens that attract pollinators by providing habitats that make them feel welcome and safe.
Regularly inspect your plants for pests. Check the leaves and address any infestations immediately.
Tender crops like tomatoes and peppers should remain protected if temperatures drop below freezing.
Invasive species choke out native plants, disrupt the local ecosystem, and can be nearly impossible to control once they establish themselves.
Native plants are adapted to your local climate, making them easier to care for and more resistant to pests and disease.
If your garden area lacks sufficient sunlight, consider container gardening.
