Your hard work last fall planting tulips, nar- cissi, crocuses and other bulbs will be richly rewarded with glo- rious blooms. While you're enjoying the view it’s a good time to think » ahead to next year’s blooms. Some simple steps taken now can pay off with a yard full of beauti- ful bulb flowers for many springs to come. Give “naturalized” bulbs a spring energy boost. The term naturalized refers to bulbs that are left in the grownd to return year after year. Some are better “returners” than others. Most tulips, for example, are magnifi- cent their first year of bloom, but diminish over time. On the other hand, narcissi, such as daffodils, will not only return, but moultiply over the years. When the first shoots appear in spring, naturalized bulbs a shot’ of high nitro- gen liquid fertilizer such as Stern's Miracid. The young shoots crave nitrogen, and Miracid contains 30 percent of this vital nutrient. Mixed in water according to label direc- tions, the nutrients can be absorbed through the plant’s leaves as well as the roots. Don’t worry about the word acid in Miracid; that simply refers to the product's ability to slightly acidify soil through a natural partnership with micro-organ- isms in the soil. When the blooms of spring bulbs in garden beds have faded, cut the flower heads off, but leave the green foliage. Profes- sional bulb growers in Holland call it “heading” the bulb. By removing the flower, the plant will expend no effort making seed pods. It will put its energy into building a strong, healthy bulb for next year’s bloom. This technique is especially helpful for tulips, but is labor intensive and best confined to bulbs in the bed and border, For naturalized bulbs, say a whole field of daf- fodils, it’s not worth the effort. Natural is natural, If bulbs are growing in the lawn, hold off mowing the lawn until the naturalized bulbs die back. For a good return next season, it’s necessary to let the foliage remain for six weeks. This is usually not a problem for very early bulbs, such as crocus. However, for later blooming daffodils, six weeks may be too long to let the lawn grow. In that case, mow them down, and next fall confine your “daffs” to a more marginal area of the yard. Second best...but just as good for wildlife bit as desirable as the rose and d the lengthy battle over the selection of the national flower.

Marigolds aren't finicky plants and roses are. Too many roses mean less meandering time. Therefore, I plant hundreds of marigolds. They thrive in full sun, average to poor soil, and provide continuous bloom if you keep seeds from forming. For the wildlife gardener, marigolds pro- vide nectar for butterflies, seeds for juncos and sparrows, and if you choose your varieties care- fully, offer a degree of nematode and insect control. Here is a brief evaluation of marigold species and some of my favorite vari- eties. oarigolds Well over 200 vari- eties are available but for butter- flies, choose single ones, such as Naughty Marietta or those just barely double. The size of the plant or flower is not important. Hybrids of this and the African marigold such as Burpee's Mules or Park's Hi-Gs offer almost nothing to wildlife but do sport incredibly large, long-lasting flowers. Thompson and Morgan offers the best line of single French marigolds. + African marigold (T. erecta): Tallest of the clan but one with little wildlife value. Breeders took the wild single flowered form and bred out most of its nectar and seed producing capa- bility. + Signet marigold (7. tenuifo- dia): Although relatively unknown “@Prened mia Fiyold ¢Ta gb 1es91oltonmanly petdeners, tis is’ plant \patula): Despiné the iiame, anv & Barry Brown Home 365-2757 Bus. 365-2111 pe Only $18,50011 fr, cc?

This is a perennial species and an herb grown by Native Americans in the southwestern U.S. With a smell somewhere between anise and tarragon, it's worth a try. + Irish lace marigold (T. filifo- lia): My source is a naturalized Nebraska population of this Cen- tral American flower, but you can find it in your Park's catalog. Grow it as a border for its lacy foliage which is sweetly pungent. The flowers will go nearly unno- ticed but I'll bet it's a great insect repeller. Try it!
