Gardening Tips for February

February 1, 2023 by admin

Yes, it’s still winter, but there are always things you can do in your garden, no matter what month it is! Below you will find a few gardening tips for February.

If you haven’t ordered your seeds yet, be sure to do so now. You’ll start seeing them in the big box stores now, so make sure to get the varieties you want before stocks start to dwindle.

Just like January, you should typically make sure to water your trees and shrubs again if we don’t receive 1″ of rainfall or 1′ of snow. However, we still have a pretty good blanket of snow, so you should be good there.

Now is also a great time to prune your fruit trees, ornamental grasses, and summer-flowering shrubs (if they’re not covered in snow). First, though, make sure you sharpen and sterilize your pruning shears. And hold off on pruning your spring-flowering shrubs (lilacs, forsythia, snowball bushes, etc) until after they bloom.

If you want to get a head-start on your vegetable garden, according to Rodale’s Organic Life, you can start a few winter items indoors: “Under fluorescent lights, start seeds of onions and leeks at the beginning of the month [and] near the end of the month, start seeds of broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, and Brussels sprouts…”

Gardening tips for February: start seeds indoors for your vegetable garden.
