Tip of the month..

Plant peas, lettuce, spinach
Plant spring bulbs
Stake out new beds or garden areas.

Plant bare-root roses
Plant something on St. Pat’s Day.
Apply compost for early spring crops
Set out pansies in beds or frost proof containers. (harden off first)
In Colorado, March tends to be the snowiest month of the year. Heavy, wet snow can break the branches of evergreen trees and deciduous trees that have leafed out early. If heavy snowfall endangers tree branches, you may wish to knock off excess snow by gently lifting branches upward with a broom or rake. Be careful not to add to the weight already on the branches by pressing down!
Trim ornamental grasses close to ground. Use bungee cord and saw.
Trim butterfly bush 3-5 inches above ground
Continue to water your yard periodically ("winter water") if it doesn't rain or snow. March's winds and sunny days can be very drying
Roses and other tender shrubs should not be pruned at this time. Pruning stimulates new growth that could be killed by frost or heavy snow
It is best to prune many trees in late winter or early spring while they are dormant; therefore, if you have trees that need pruning, do it now. One advantage to pruning now is you can more easily see how to shape the tree when it has no leaves. Also, insects and disease organisms that penetrate trees through pruning wounds are less prevalent in cold weather
