So many plants here, like the sunflowers, are left standing over winter for the bees and other insects that use their stems overwinter their young in. You raise a good point though that it's important to know what else might be overwintering in parts of the garden too!Curbstone Valley Farmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06714297348566721344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3093185160483906357.post-27862026687005039562012-12-05T06:02:27.827-06:002012-12-05T06:02:27.827-06:00A, I can send you seeds...A, I can send you seeds...Gailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16194325535496408116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3093185160483906357.post-76693687927288348802012-12-04T20:00:39.828-06:002012-12-04T20:00:39.828-06:00Thanks for the reminder Gail!

If they have Powdery Mildew during the growing season, I'll chop them to the ground at the first frost and dispose of everything, which hopefully cuts the chances of Mildew the following season. It's been especially important the last few years, since we've had unusually mild winteres that are perfect for those damn spores!scottweberpdxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08740930947767329183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3093185160483906357.post-71283876608108271902012-12-03T08:43:15.099-06:002012-12-03T08:43:15.099-06:00I haven't seen that particular pest down here ...I haven't seen that particular pest down here in Texas and I am GLAD!Cindy, MCOKhttp://www.mycornerofkaty.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3093185160483906357.post-53195069312277676972012-12-03T06:30:46.883-06:002012-12-03T06:30:46.883-06:00Gail,
