With soil temperatures down now, it’s time to plant the bulbs
(tulips, daffodils,
hyacinth, etc) that will make beautiful flowers in the spring. On
"The Georgia
Gardener" Oct. 28 and 30, host Walter Reeves shows how to
give bulbs a well-prepared
bed.

Reeves shows exactly how to prepare the soil. Then he shows
how to arrange the bulbs,
plant and mulch them.

In his
final show of the 1999
season, Reeves shows how to plant a fescue lawn, too, including a
nifty trick to help
determine how much seed to use. Finally, he demonstrates the
proper way to prune shrubs
and trees.

"The Georgia Gardener" is designed especially for
Georgia gardeners. It airs
on GPTV at 7:30 p.m. on Thursdays and 10 a.m. on Saturdays. The
show is produced by the
University of Georgia College of Agricultural and Environmental
Sciences and PFC Holding
Company.
