Digging Up Canna Bulbs
In the Midwest we find ourselves digging up canna bulbs to store for winter. If we chose not to; we will lose our plant and have to purchase new bulbs the following spring. Some gardeners prefer to purchase yearly. Others, including myself, will lift our bulbs and reuse them.
How to Prune Blackberries
In order to understand how to prune blackberries it’s important to understand the basics of how blackberries grow. Blackberries are perennials.This means that the root system will live for many years. The root system produces new canes yearly. Canes produced are biennial and die after two years. The first year of growth on a blackberry is called a primocane. For many varieties of blackberries (though not all) this is primarily a vegetative year of growth and will not produce fruit.
