Gardening by the Moon Weekend To-Do

An idea as old as agriculture, based both folklore and superstition but there are scientific ideas to back it up.

• Saturday-Monday: Moon in the sign of Taurus - Plant Seasonal color
  •   Cyclamen, Primroses, and Pansies are available for planting. The selection increases in the upcoming weeks. 

Later in the Week

• When pruning roses, don't be concerned if you find no new buds or breaks along the main canes. Instead, pick a point and prune. In four to six weeks, come back and finish the job as the new buds will be visible.

Other Things To-do

• Onion, garlic, and shallot sets are available for planting. Planted in January they're harvested in mid-summer.
