Clean, sharp tools make pruning safer for both plants and people. Dull blades tear wood instead of making clean cuts, which slows healing and increases disease risk. Start by cleaning pruners, loppers, and saws with warm water and a stiff brush. Disinfect blades with rubbing alcohol or a diluted bleach solution, especially if they were used on diseased plants last year. Sharpen blades and oil moving parts so everything is ready when spring arrives. Homeowners often underestimate how much better pruning goes with well maintained tools. It is one of the simplest upgrades you can make to your gardening routine. https://www.seacoastgardener.com/news-notes/2026/3/17/limelight-hydrangeas-on-the-seacoast-how-to-grow-strong-blooms-in-salt-wind-and-sandy-soil monthly 0.5 2026-04-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c240e535ffd20a3fadcbe6e/40595fe3-12ba-4bf8-9871-9d81f1d940f9/Salt+Wind%3A+The+Invisible+Stressor In The Dirt! - Limelight Hydrangeas on the Seacoast: How to Grow Strong Blooms in Salt Wind and Sandy Soil - Salt Wind: The Invisible Stressor Salt spray is a background condition most Seacoast gardeners underestimate until they see the damage—bronzed leaf margins, stunted growth, and flowers that never quite fill out. Limelights sit in a sweet spot: they're more salt-tolerant than most hydrangeas, but they still benefit from strategic placement. A windward hedge, a fence, or taller evergreens on the ocean-facing side can dramatically reduce the salt load reaching your shrubs. https://www.seacoastgardener.com/news-notes/2026/2/22/countdown-to-spring-preparing-tools-and-supplies monthly 0.5 2026-03-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c240e535ffd20a3fadcbe6e/2ec88157-55f9-4cfe-bb67-b650c7f50fc8/Preparing+Soil+Amendments In The Dirt! - Countdown to Spring: Preparing Tools and Supplies - Preparing Soil Amendments Zone 6b soils along the Seacoast vary widely. Some properties in Portsmouth and North Hampton have sandy, fast draining soil. Others in inland areas near Exeter may have heavier, compacted ground. Stock up on compost, organic fertilizers, and mulch before garden centers sell out. Having materials ready allows you to respond quickly once the soil reaches workable moisture levels. Early soil preparation supports strong root development and long term plant health. https://www.seacoastgardener.com/news-notes/2026/2/22/greenhouse-and-cold-frame-gardening-extending-the-season-on-the-seacoast monthly 0.5 2026-03-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c240e535ffd20a3fadcbe6e/7e57faff-c5be-4358-87fc-4e2d67293e53/Difference+Between+Greenhouses+and+Cold+Frames In The Dirt! - Greenhouse and Cold Frame Gardening Extending the Season on the Seacoast - Understanding the Difference Between Greenhouses and Cold Frames A greenhouse is a larger, enclosed structure designed to capture sunlight and retain warmth. It creates a controlled environment where plants can grow even when outdoor temperatures remain low. Many Seacoast gardeners use greenhouses to start seeds in late winter while snow still covers the ground. A cold frame, by contrast, is smaller and simpler. Often built low to the ground with a transparent lid, it acts as a miniature greenhouse. Cold frames are perfect for hardening off seedlings, protecting early spring greens, or extending fall harvests without a full scale structure. https://www.seacoastgardener.com/news-notes/2026/2/15/soil-testing-and-amending-before-spring monthly 0.5 2026-03-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c240e535ffd20a3fadcbe6e/432341e1-cd43-4ad3-8f94-cf5fd8f64859/imgi_233_P4N4-Why-Its-Important-to-Test-the-pH-of-Your-Run-Off-BodyImg_pHValue-1024x665-1.jpg.png In The Dirt! - Soil Testing and Amending Before Spring - Understanding Soil pH in Zone 6b One of the most important results from a soil test is pH. Many ornamental shrubs and trees common to Seacoast gardens, including hydrangeas, rhododendrons, and certain evergreens, are sensitive to soil acidity. If the pH is too high or too low, plants struggle to absorb nutrients even if those nutrients are present. Adjusting pH before spring growth begins allows roots to access what they need during the active growing season. This early preparation leads to stronger foliage, better flowering, and improved resistance to pests and disease. https://www.seacoastgardener.com/news-notes/2026/2/15/compost-planning-for-the-year-ahead monthly 0.5 2026-04-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c240e535ffd20a3fadcbe6e/568c593c-570f-437e-8591-8401b4792ff9/Start+With+a+Clear+Compost+Goal In The Dirt! - Compost Planning for the Year Ahead - Start With a Clear Compost Goal Before you begin adding kitchen scraps and yard waste, think about how you want to use your compost. Are you preparing new planting beds this spring. Improving shrub borders. Supporting ornamental trees that have struggled. Planning a vegetable patch. Knowing your goal helps determine how much compost you will need and when. For example, if you plan to refresh mulched beds in North Hampton or expand perennial borders in Portsmouth, you may want finished compost ready by early spring. That means starting your pile the previous summer or fall. https://www.seacoastgardener.com/news-notes/2025/10/14/understanding-fertilizer-numbers-what-do-4-10-3-and-10-10-10-really-mean monthly 0.5 2026-03-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c240e535ffd20a3fadcbe6e/3700d0fb-bb50-41f7-9cd2-6e7db4e8b544/Understanding+Fertilizer+Numbers%3A+What+Do+4-10-3+and+10-10-10+Really+Mean%3F In The Dirt! - Understanding Fertilizer Numbers: What Do 4-10-3 and 10-10-10 Really Mean? - Phosphorus (P): Building Roots and Blooms The middle number on the label represents phosphorus, the nutrient plants rely on for root development, flowering, and fruiting.

Once the brilliant yellow blooms are finished, the plant immediately begins setting buds for the following year. Pruning at this stage gives the shrub the entire summer to produce strong new shoots that will carry next spring’s flowers. If you wait too long and prune later in the season, you risk cutting off those developing buds and losing next year’s display. https://www.seacoastgardener.com/news-notes/2026/2/15/planning-and-ordering-summer-flower-bulbs monthly 0.5 2026-03-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c240e535ffd20a3fadcbe6e/ff0b0de4-2eb3-4333-b123-837b63c52e9f/imgi_166_E9noKr9RfW3PDZGNyxvb7N+%281%29.png In The Dirt! - Planning and Ordering Summer Flower Bulbs - What Are Summer Flower Bulbs Summer flowering bulbs include plants such as dahlias, lilies, gladiolus, begonias, and cannas. Unlike spring bulbs that bloom early and fade as temperatures rise, these varieties come into their own once the soil warms and the days grow longer. In our Seacoast climate, most summer bulbs are planted after the danger of frost has passed, typically in mid to late May. Ordering early ensures you have access to the healthiest stock and the best selection before popular varieties sell out. https://www.seacoastgardener.com/news-notes/2026/2/15/starting-a-cutting-garden-from-seed monthly 0.5 2026-03-13 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c240e535ffd20a3fadcbe6e/deb3e4aa-96f8-46dd-8ae7-d2d00c46a35f/imgi_205_prepare-soil-for-spring.png In The Dirt! - Starting a Cutting Garden from Seed - Preparing the Soil Strong flowers start with healthy soil. Before sowing seeds, loosen the soil to a depth of several inches and incorporate compost to improve structure and fertility. In sandy soils, compost helps retain moisture during dry summer spells. In heavier soils, it prevents compaction and encourages proper drainage. A soil test in early spring can guide you in adjusting pH and nutrient levels. Many cutting flowers thrive in slightly acidic to neutral soil. Amending before planting gives your seedlings the best possible start. https://www.seacoastgardener.com/news-notes/2025/4/12/were-seeing-a-lot-of-euonymus-scale-check-your-plants-fca4r-ayjze monthly 0.5 2026-03-13 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c240e535ffd20a3fadcbe6e/e9110623-8a8f-4937-ac76-88fbaa996e76/axalua+a.jpg In The Dirt! - Azaleas That Thrive on the New Hampshire Seacoast: Practical Planting and Ongoing Care - Tips to Maximize Spring Azalea Bloom Euonymus Scale Enlarged https://www.seacoastgardener.com/news-notes/2026/2/15/caring-for-indoor-bulbs-after-bloom monthly 0.5 2026-03-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c240e535ffd20a3fadcbe6e/fe296a1a-a757-451f-95b8-445869000ec2/Caring+for+Indoor+Bulbs+After+Bloom In The Dirt! - Caring for Indoor Bulbs After Bloom - Water and Feed Lightly After bloom, indoor bulbs still need consistent care. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry, but do not let the pot sit in standing water. Overwatering is one of the most common problems I see in homes across Rye and North Hampton. A light application of a balanced liquid fertilizer every few weeks can help support healthy leaf growth. This extra nutrition encourages strong bulbs that are more likely to thrive once moved outdoors. Healthy foliage now means stronger flowers later. https://www.seacoastgardener.com/news-notes/2025/4/12/were-seeing-a-lot-of-euonymus-scale-check-your-plants-fca4r-6kyb5 monthly 0.5 2026-03-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c240e535ffd20a3fadcbe6e/be55d0d3-43b2-4ba2-85fe-9ec6c54be8b0/garden+club+meeting++inline.jpg In The Dirt! - Gardening Together is Better: Connect and Grow Together - Garden Clubs Build Better Communities Euonymus Scale Enlarged https://www.seacoastgardener.com/news-notes/2025/4/12/were-seeing-a-lot-of-euonymus-scale-check-your-plants-fca4r-xzssx monthly 0.5 2026-03-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c240e535ffd20a3fadcbe6e/19d1be46-90f1-4b19-936e-6e969ac33d3c/winter+interest+coneflowrs.jpg In The Dirt! - Creating Winter Garden Paths You’ll Actually Use - Leave perennial Tops for Winter Interest Euonymus Scale Enlarged https://www.seacoastgardener.com/news-notes/2025/4/12/were-seeing-a-lot-of-euonymus-scale-check-your-plants-fca4r-8jtm7 monthly 0.5 2026-02-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c240e535ffd20a3fadcbe6e/de188ead-963d-463e-b1ca-255dd683993e/winter+interst++inline.jpg In The Dirt! - Don’t Wait Until Spring to Fix Your Boring Winter Garden - What A Winter-Ready Garden Actually Has Euonymus Scale Enlarged https://www.seacoastgardener.com/news-notes/2025/4/12/were-seeing-a-lot-of-euonymus-scale-check-your-plants-fca4r-8jtm7-f3y87 monthly 0.5 2026-02-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c240e535ffd20a3fadcbe6e/2306a94d-2090-4637-84ff-b44c51c0c1db/felcdo+repaired.jpg In The Dirt! - Sharp Tools: Winter Maintenance Homeowners Often Skip - A Well-Maintained Tool - Better Than New Euonymus Scale Enlarged https://www.seacoastgardener.com/news-notes/2026/2/6/dormant-pruning-shrubs-and-small-trees monthly 0.5 2026-03-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c240e535ffd20a3fadcbe6e/d2a04a8e-37d4-4b9d-94a5-491a473c8f9a/Shrubs+That+Benefit+From+Dormant+Pruning In The Dirt! - Dormant Pruning Shrubs and Small Trees - Shrubs That Benefit From Dormant Pruning Many deciduous shrubs respond beautifully to late winter pruning. Hydrangea paniculata and smooth hydrangea are good examples. These bloom on new wood, so pruning now encourages stronger stems and larger flowers in summer. Spirea, potentilla, and summersweet can also be pruned during dormancy. Removing old or crowded stems improves airflow and allows sunlight to reach the center of the plant. This leads to fuller growth and better flowering. Shrubs that bloom in spring should be approached with caution. Lilac, forsythia, and azalea form buds the previous season. Pruning them now removes flowers, so they are best pruned right after blooming. https://www.seacoastgardener.com/news-notes/2025/4/12/were-seeing-a-lot-of-euonymus-scale-check-your-plants-fca4r-8jtm7-7sn27 monthly 0.5 2026-02-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c240e535ffd20a3fadcbe6e/e8013166-8e66-49f4-b7a5-3eb431803262/budding+1+inline.jpg In The Dirt! - Winter Pruning in Portsmouth: What to Cut Now and What to Leave Alone - Why Pruning Timing Is About Buds, Not the Calendar Euonymus Scale Enlarged https://www.seacoastgardener.com/news-notes/2025/4/12/were-seeing-a-lot-of-euonymus-scale-check-your-plants-fca4r-8jtm7-7sn27-m259l monthly 0.5 2026-02-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c240e535ffd20a3fadcbe6e/07f490cd-2873-48a7-bb3f-45624b980913/palant+label.jpg In The Dirt! - Reading Plant Labels Like A Pro: Off-Season Learning That Saves You Money - What A Plant Label Really Tells You Euonymus Scale Enlarged https://www.seacoastgardener.com/news-notes/2025/12/23/protecting-outdoor-containers-and-shrubs-from-freeze-a-seacoast-gardeners-winter-advice monthly 0.5 2026-01-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c240e535ffd20a3fadcbe6e/677210f9-ca8e-4376-98ba-4143497d0a7e/Preparing+Outdoor+Containers+for+Winter In The Dirt! - Protecting Outdoor Containers and Shrubs from Freeze: A Seacoast Gardener’s Winter Advice - Preparing Outdoor Containers for Winter Containers need special attention before the first hard freeze. Start by assessing what can realistically stay outside. Cold hardy perennials and small shrubs can overwinter successfully, but only if their roots are protected. Move containers closer to the house or into a sheltered spot where they are shielded from prevailing winds. Insulating pots is one of the most effective steps you can take. Wrapping containers with burlap, bubble wrap, or natural fiber insulation helps moderate temperature swings. Elevating pots slightly off frozen ground improves drainage and prevents water from freezing solid around the roots. Water containers deeply before the ground freezes, since hydrated roots tolerate cold far better than dry ones. https://www.seacoastgardener.com/news-notes/2025/12/23/how-to-make-winter-compost-work-in-the-seacoast-garden monthly 0.5 2026-01-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c240e535ffd20a3fadcbe6e/be21566f-bc56-4764-9950-1eba092e5c18/What+to+Compost+During+the+Winter+Months In The Dirt! - How to Make Winter Compost Work in the Seacoast Garden - What to Compost During the Winter Months Winter composting works best when you focus on the right materials. Kitchen scraps like vegetable peels, coffee grounds, and eggshells continue to add nitrogen. From the garden, fall leaves, spent annuals, and finely chopped perennial trimmings provide carbon. Avoid adding diseased plant material, especially after a wet Seacoast fall. Woody prunings from shrubs and small ornamental trees should be chipped or cut into small pieces before adding them. Large branches break down very slowly and can stall the compost pile. Professional pruning services often manage this material carefully so it can be reused or composted efficiently. https://www.seacoastgardener.com/news-notes/2025/12/23/garden-reflections-what-this-year-taught-us-about-our-landscapes monthly 0.5 2026-02-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c240e535ffd20a3fadcbe6e/4ed7ea33-a79e-40f2-afdb-35545e50aa92/Why+Pruning+Timing+Matters+More+Than+Ever In The Dirt! - Garden Reflections What This Year Taught Us About Our Landscapes - Why Pruning Timing Matters More Than Ever One of the clearest lessons this year was the importance of seasonal pruning. Many homeowners are tempted to prune whenever something looks unruly. This season showed how critical timing is for plant health and long term structure. Spring flowering shrubs responded best when pruned right after bloom, while structural pruning on ornamental trees was most successful when done during dormancy or early spring. Avoiding heavy pruning during heat or drought periods helped plants recover faster and resist pests. Thoughtful pruning is not about cutting more. It is about cutting with intention. https://www.seacoastgardener.com/news-notes/2025/12/23/refreshing-your-indoor-garden-for-the-new-year monthly 0.5 2026-01-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c240e535ffd20a3fadcbe6e/8fd146d8-b897-41cc-b4b8-11ef634da4e1/Bright+cozy+home+with+plants In The Dirt! - Refreshing Your Indoor Garden for the New Year - Start With Observation And Gentle Cleanup Before touching soil or pruning shears, take time to really look at your plants. Notice yellowing leaves, leggy growth, or signs of pests like sticky residue or fine webbing. Indoor plants often show subtle signals before bigger problems develop. Remove dead or damaged leaves with clean, sharp scissors. This improves airflow and reduces the risk of fungal issues, which can be common during damp New England winters. Wipe leaves gently with a damp cloth to remove dust and improve light absorption. https://www.seacoastgardener.com/news-notes/2025/12/23/planning-a-winter-windowsill-herb-garden monthly 0.5 2026-01-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c240e535ffd20a3fadcbe6e/4d51f5c6-fb87-4b96-88da-64101a403517/Soil+and+Containers+Make+the+Difference In The Dirt! - Planning a Winter Windowsill Herb Garden - Light Matters More Than You Think Winter sunlight in North Hampton and surrounding coastal towns is lower and weaker than in summer. South facing windows are best, offering the brightest and longest exposure during short days. East facing windows can also work, especially for herbs like chives and parsley that tolerate gentler light. If plants start stretching or leaning, that is a sign they need more light. Rotating pots weekly keeps growth even and prevents weak stems. Supplemental grow lights can be helpful, but many windowsill gardens succeed simply by choosing the brightest location in the home. https://www.seacoastgardener.com/news-notes/2025/11/19/keeping-backyard-bird-baths-and-feeders-healthy-through-winter monthly 0.5 2025-12-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c240e535ffd20a3fadcbe6e/826582d3-975e-4ec8-b4ab-cf8814ad6020/imgi_170_3-How-to-Clean-a-Bird-Feeder-Properly.png In The Dirt! - Keeping Backyard Bird Baths and Feeders Healthy Through Winter - How to Clean Bird Feeders Properly Begin by emptying all old seed and discarding anything wet, moldy, or stuck together.

In The Dirt! - Caging Tulips (Hardware Cloth) To Stop Critter Raids - The Hardware Cloth Solution Hardware cloth is a galvanized metal mesh, similar to chicken wire but with smaller openings that even voles can’t squeeze through. Creating a simple cage from this material is one of the most reliable ways to safeguard your bulbs. To make a cage, cut a piece of ½-inch hardware cloth large enough to line your planting area. Form the sides and bottom into a shallow box about six inches deep. Place your tulip bulbs inside, root-end down, and cover them with soil. You can then lay another piece of mesh flat over the top before finishing with soil and mulch. The bulbs will grow easily through the gaps, but pests won’t be able to dig in. https://www.seacoastgardener.com/news-notes/2025/10/16/bulb-depth-rules-23-bulb-height-spacing-and-mass-planting-patterns monthly 0.5 2025-10-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c240e535ffd20a3fadcbe6e/8d143fb5-0302-4374-af75-1ed262091871/Bulb+depth+rules+%282%E2%80%933%C3%97+bulb+height%29%2C+spacing%2C+and+mass-planting+patterns In The Dirt! - Planting Spring Bulbs: The Right Depth & Spacing For Success. - Spacing for Healthy Growth and Long-Term Success Spacing matters as much as depth. Bulbs need room to multiply and breathe underground. For mid-sized bulbs like tulips or daffodils, plant them four to six inches apart. Smaller bulbs like scilla and grape hyacinth can be closer — about two to three inches apart. Large bulbs such as alliums should be given eight inches of space to accommodate their spreading roots. https://www.seacoastgardener.com/news-notes/2025/10/16/deer-and-vole-resistant-bulbs-daffodils-alliums-etc-for-coastal-gardens monthly 0.5 2025-10-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c240e535ffd20a3fadcbe6e/fad7963d-8427-483d-9732-30ff989a1412/daffadil.jpeg In The Dirt! - Deer- and vole-resistant bulbs (daffodils, alliums, etc.) for coastal gardens - Daffodils: The Gold Standard of Pest Resistance If there’s one bulb you can plant with total confidence, it’s the daffodil.

Frost arrives later, spring warms earlier, and summers bring more hot days in between. While that might sound like a gift for gardeners, for astilbes it creates real stress. These perennials evolved in cool woodland soils, and prolonged heat pushes them beyond their comfort zone. Even with regular watering, their foliage often wilts or browns more quickly under the combined pressure of hot sun and drying winds, leaving once-dependable clumps looking tired well before summer’s end. https://www.seacoastgardener.com/news-notes/2025/8/3/heres-why-your-irises-arent-blooming-and-how-to-fix-it monthly 0.5 2025-10-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c240e535ffd20a3fadcbe6e/ab51d23a-9b29-45f0-a44f-0a17085755fa/imgi_356_1210bce9-3a01-441e-b76a-20a393b656d4-724e524.png In The Dirt! - Here's Why Your Irises Aren’t Blooming (And How to Fix It) - 3.

Panicle hydrangeas are the most dependable option, as they tolerate full sun, coastal winds, and colder winters while rewarding you with long-lasting, cone-shaped blooms. Smooth hydrangeas are another safe bet for Zone 6b, thriving in partial shade and producing reliable white flowers each year. If you love the vibrant colors of bigleaf hydrangeas, choose cold-hardy varieties and plant them in protected spots where spring frosts won’t damage their buds. For added seasonal interest, consider oakleaf hydrangeas in a sheltered area, where their unique foliage and stunning fall color can shine. By matching the hydrangea type to your garden’s sunlight, soil, and exposure, you’ll set yourself up for success in Zone 6b. https://www.seacoastgardener.com/news-notes/2025/7/5/common-weeds-and-how-to-fight-them-on-the-new-hampshire-seacoast-zgg9r-yxy6x-b5jdw-4kmwm-y73yj-ptacs monthly 0.5 2025-09-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c240e535ffd20a3fadcbe6e/a1209e69-df34-4aec-9e9f-5ad53b6c86d9/imgi_173_pr-tn-pruning-roses-gloves-secatuers.png In The Dirt! - September Pruning Mistakes | NH Seacoast - Pruning at the Wrong Time When it comes to pruning, timing is everything. One of the most common mistakes is cutting back old-wood bloomers such as lilacs or hydrangeas in the fall or early spring. These shrubs form their flower buds the season before, so pruning at the wrong time means you are removing the very blooms that should appear the following year. The result is a plant that looks healthy but fails to flower, leaving gardeners disappointed. https://www.seacoastgardener.com/news-notes/2025/7/5/common-weeds-and-how-to-fight-them-on-the-new-hampshire-seacoast-zgg9r monthly 0.5 2025-09-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c240e535ffd20a3fadcbe6e/6bb7a4b1-a10f-46a1-b28d-792687b0a470/imgi_180_Small-ornamental-garden-with-spherical-and-cone-shaped-bushes.png In The Dirt! - Shaping Evergreen Hedges: Boxwood, Yew, and Arborvitae Tips | NH Seacoast - Yew’s Flexibility Yews are a versatile option for Seacoast landscapes and are generally more forgiving than boxwood when it comes to pruning. Unlike many evergreens, they can regenerate even if cut back hard into old wood, making them ideal for taller hedges or situations where a hedge needs a complete reset. For major cutbacks, the best time is early spring before new growth begins, while light shaping can be done through the summer to keep them tidy.

If mulch volcanoes are so harmful, why do we see them everywhere? The answer lies in appearance, habit, and a bit of misinformation. For many homeowners, the cone shape has an aesthetic appeal. It looks clean and “finished,” like the tree has been neatly tucked into the landscape. The problem is that looks can be deceiving. There’s also a widespread misconception that mulch should be pressed right up against the trunk to protect or “feed” the tree. In reality, piling mulch this way does the opposite—it weakens the bark and suffocates the roots. https://www.seacoastgardener.com/news-notes/2025/7/5/common-weeds-and-how-to-fight-them-on-the-new-hampshire-seacoast-zgg9r-yxy6x-b5jdw-4kmwm-y73yj-ptacs-gn66g-d8728-d9n42-98p9b monthly 0.5 2025-09-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c240e535ffd20a3fadcbe6e/f708474d-0dac-459f-8ace-e7b1d53abe11/imgi_9_default.png In The Dirt! - Powdery Mildew on the NH Seacoast: Protecting Peonies and Other Garden Plants - What Powdery Mildew Looks Like Powdery mildew is easy to spot: a white or gray powder that spreads across leaves, stems, and sometimes buds.

Place the entire pot into a tub of water so the root ball absorbs moisture all the way through. This step ensures your mums begin with a strong foundation. For best results, keep the pot submerged until you no longer see bubbles rising to the surface. Once the soil is fully saturated, remove the plant from the tub and place it into the garden bed, container, or walkway display. This small step makes a big difference in helping your fall mums on the New Hampshire Seacoast last longer and show brighter color. https://www.seacoastgardener.com/news-notes/2025/7/5/jumping-worms-what-they-are-and-why-nh-gardeners-should-be-concerned monthly 0.5 2025-08-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c240e535ffd20a3fadcbe6e/3a40480d-eb86-43d7-b539-3cd3ec9ab790/imgi_155_ghows-SO-7084176a-66e4-5778-e053-0100007ffa79-a58d429d.png In The Dirt! - Jumping Worms: What They Are and Why NH Gardeners Should Be Concerned - Jumping Worm Traits to Watch For They also have a few other noticeable traits: Appearance: Smooth, glossy gray or brown with a metallic sheen Clitellum: A milky white, flat band that wraps evenly around the body (unlike the raised band in common earthworms) Soil Clues: Leave behind a loose, crumbly layer of castings that resemble dry coffee grounds at the soil surface These signs often appear in garden beds, under mulch, or near compost piles—common places where jumping worms in garden soil thrive.

In Zone 6b, rhododendrons typically finish blooming by mid to late June. Once the flowers fade, the plant begins to set next year’s buds — and it does so relatively quickly. That’s why early summer is your window for pruning: it’s the sweet spot between the end of blooming and the start of next year’s growth cycle. If you prune too early (before or during bloom), you lose this year’s flowers. If you prune too late (July or later), you risk cutting off the buds for next spring. Timing is everything. Recent spring rains and cool temps gave rhodies a strong bloom season this year, but with summer heat on the way, it's the perfect moment to clean up, shape, and prep your plant for the next cycle. https://www.seacoastgardener.com/news-notes/2025/6/8/rqk1avn8axfyuspwvhupmar5gi9ry9 monthly 0.5 2025-09-21 https://www.seacoastgardener.com/news-notes/2025/6/8/new-hampshire-seacoast-gardeners-avoid-these-summer-watering-mistakes monthly 0.5 2025-07-03 https://www.seacoastgardener.com/news-notes/2025/6/8/why-cutting-and-loosening-pot-bound-perennials-matters-for-seacoast-gardens monthly 0.5 2025-07-01 https://www.seacoastgardener.com/news-notes/2025/6/8/landscaping-mistakes-to-avoid-rethinking-oversized-foundation-plantings monthly 0.5 2025-06-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c240e535ffd20a3fadcbe6e/e9e9a24f-3185-4429-90e9-af1d5e9d3c73/sized+foundi+%282%29.jpg In The Dirt! - Landscaping Mistakes To Avoid: Rethinking Oversized Foundation Plantings - Smarter Planting: Fixing overgrown front yard landscaping in NH The solution starts with long-term thinking and a little patience.
