Roses can be such a magnificent part of the garden, yet the home gardener is too often disappointed with their performance. Correct procedures at planting, go a long way in ensuring decent results.

Roses have traditionally been considered virtually compulsory elements in the ornamental garden. Their star has waned somewhat in recent years, partly because of inadequate design knowledge with some home gardeners, but mainly due to poor horticultural practices that invariably result in disappointing performance and appearance from the roses. Incorrect planting procedures are often the primary cause of failure and disillusion with the “Queen of the Garden?, but carrying out five essential steps properly, can almost guarantee success and years of delight from the rose bushes.

Worms can help your soil and improve your garden.

Worm farms are excellent for small areas like balconies and courtyards because they are compact and relatively tidy. Worm castings (excrement) and juice (liquid runoff) make an excellent organic soil conditioner and fertilizer for the garden and potted plants. Worm farms are amazing little things. Essentially you put your food scraps into a container with worms, they chomp away on it and give you a by product of pH balanced castings (like a top grade potting mix, but probably better) and pH balanced liquid fertilizer.

Worm castings are coated allowing the nutrients to time release to your plants. Unlike chemical fertilizers, you can not burn your plants by using too many castings. Casts do not have to be diluted for use in the garden, but make sure they are tilled into the soil. For best results, add compost and mulch as soil cover.
