Wrapping tall cedars in burlap in winter helps to protect them, although they should not be tightly wrapped as this can damage instead of protect them. Staking around bushes can also help to prevent snow damage. John also pointed out that when clearing the snow from our paths or walkways, we should avoid throwing it on our bushes. : Although snow acts as insulation when it falls naturally, after being shovelled or blown it can freeze into solid blocks and cause damage to the plants. We also talked on transplanting trees, how to prepare the ground, what fertilizer to use, spacing and placing for best effect and what to look for when buying them. It is best to buy trees or shrubs that are grown for our area and not to ex- pect something that grows in the "banana belt" to thrive up here. Hints on pruning and what fer- tilizers work best for the root systems or the foliage and how often to fer- tilize were given. The talk concluded with ideas of how best to keep our lawns in shape. John also had books and photographs for us to look at and get ideas for our own gardens and town centre.
