Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray my leaves the Deer don’t eat
And when in spring, shoots I make
I pray they get a tummy ache
The End
As much as we all love our gardens, it is time to put them to sleep. Sleepless gardens are a pitiful sight.
And besides we have other Queenly duties to perform now, what with the holidays and all.
These are the things we do to ensure they have sweet dreams and gain strength for the coming spring.
1. We wash everything down with: 1cup mouthwash, *1cup chewing tobacco juice, I cup dawn.
Put into a sprayer and work from top to bottom on all perennials. *We buy 1 pk. Of chewing tobacco in the spring, put it in a half gallon container and fill with water. It lasts all season and is a good alternative for organic bug control.
2. We spray with dormant oil and weather protection like “Wilt proof”. Again from top to bottom. Wilt proof is also good to protect your plants from sunburn in the heat of summer.
3. Final feeding for all our beds, bone meal and Epson salts, spread according to directions. Mulch well, we like shredded cedar bark for bug control.
Say “Nite, Nite! Sleep well, don’t let the bugs bite!
