Show I Nows the r Lakeside Review South, Wednesday, April 25, 1984 9A Time for Gardens - In even the coldest regions of the West, this month usually marks the beginning of gardening activities. But this year, some areas have experienced one of the most severe winters on record, so' spring may be delayed and present unusual challenges, reports the April issue of' Sunset Magazine. If, for instance, plants are waterlogged, break up berms or watering basins or dig a drainage channel to let standing water drain. Check shrubs and trees for cold damage. Prune dead wood; if damage is too serious, replace the plant. Also watch for signs of diseases, particularly anthracnose (brown blotches on leaves), (wilting, scorched-lookin- g leaves), root rot, and various types of lawn fungus. Treat problems early. According to Sunsets Intermountain Garden Guide. Once this preparatory work is completed, gardeners can nursery-sho- p and begin planting and fertilizing. (In highest elevations, plan the garden, order seeds, and get ready for planting in another month or so.) Once snow and ice have melted, attention can be turned to daylilies (Hererocallis), the closest thing to foolproof perennials fire-blig- ht in REDWOOD DECK PACKAGES Add an outdoor room . . . , 10x16' can be planted replanted.

VINYL Some Sprays Not Needed I Dont waste money and effort and misuse pesticide by attempting to spray dormant fruit trees "'to control disease. That advice is given by Dr. Sherman V. Thom-r- r son, extension plant pathologist, LMJtah State University. Thomson said, Many of the products on the market in Utah for use as dormant sprays for disease control may be misleading the consumer. Most of the diseases listed on the labels do , not occur in Utah. Therefore, control is not necessary. He cites as examples diseases X" such as peach leaf curl, brown rot, rust, scab, rose black spot " 'and raspberry cane blight. They either do not occur or are ex- tremely rare in Utah. Thomson acknowledged that you may get some control of powdery mildew of apples by ap- plying a dormant spray of lime sulfur. Generally, however, this spray is ineffective. The temper- t atures must be warm enough to volatilize the sulfer before it will ; provide control. Rarely do tem-- . peratures get warm enough for this in Utah during the dormant season, Thomson noted. He also explained that the X powdery mildew of apple inside the bud. Fungicides simply are not able to penetrate the buds and eradicate the infection. Spraying when fo-- Z liage is developing and during the growing season is necessary to prevent sporulation and con-- ; trol the disease. Contact the local county extension office for more information on control of disease in fruit disease. , LEAFGUARD 10 DOWNSPOUT Debris separator ejects leaves and debris from gutters allowing free water flow.
