It's that time of year to get to work on your garden. How do master gardeners start?

Glad You Asked.

Right now, the Ozaukee Master Gardeners have a lot of 'clean up days,' clearing out leaves and brush and doing a lot of pruning.

"Right now is a great time to start pruning the roses." said master gardener Susie Granzow. "Getting to a point where it's very open. So, you only have maybe 3-5 canes left when you're done. Think of a bowl shape or like if you were holding a basketball. You want it open in the middle so it gets a lot of airflow and it gets a lot of sunshine. And you'd be amazed how like in 3 weeks, how it'll all flesh out, it'll be all full of leaves."

As for planting, our master gardener says to wait.

"For me, I still go by what Mom and Grandma did. Memorial Day weekend. Then you plant."
