Helleborus pruning
by Susan Ryan 01 Mar '21

01 Mar '21

Just a garden hint: if you have Helleborus in your garden, now is the time to prune it. In early spring when new buds are seen--they will be close to the ground, this is the time to trim off the old leaves which are lying on the ground. The new buds should bloom around Lent, hence the nickname "Lenten Rose." Helleborous is one of the earliest flowering perennials, in fact, the white varieties have been blooming for several weeks.

Hi Everyone, It's warming up and it's almost time for construction season! I'm looking for a contractor (or contractors) who can repair an existing wooden porch, build a new rear deck and possibly build a shed.
