Heather Stone Thank you for this!!
Donna G Is it too late to start in zone 6b?
John Ehrling I would wait until it gets a little cooler out Donna.
Do you grow rhododendrons in your garden?

Bren I've never heard of this variety. I am trying a new Better Boy this year along with a Purple Zebra. I've got some really pretty mini-varieties just starting to flower on my Hydroponic set up indoors I'll have to share with you.
John Ehrling Please do!
Do you use plastic in your garden? I think there are many advantages to using plastic. Keeping the ground warm, while also reducing weeds.
Bren straw works the same... breaks down nice too! I spread it on my large garden around a few plants and down the walkway to keep weeds out. The seeds do find their way through later in the summer but nothing I can't pull by hand even in this large bed. Just an idea that works for me.
