NEW GLARUS - The Green County Master Gardeners Association will be holding its monthly tour at 6:30 p.m. Thursday at Brenda's Blumenladen, 17 6th Ave., New Glarus. Anyone interested in exploring some fall topics is welcome to join the association at the tour location.
Based on information provided by the Green County UW-Extension office, Green County Master Gardener members will review some of the types of bugs seen this year, on what kinds of plants they are popular and how to control them. After the bug presentation, the next section will be "Tips for Preparing Your Garden for Winter." Master gardeners will present ideas on fall deadheading, cleaning up flower beds and gardens, transplanting plants to different areas and what to do to bring outdoor plants or bulbs in for winter storage. The final section of the tour will be presented by Brenda's Blumenladen. Discussions will include plants that can still be planted this fall, recommendations for planting them and viewing which plants are available at Brenda's Blumenladen.
The Green County Master Gardeners Association has meetings or tours on the fourth Thursday of the month from February through October. This will be the final tour for the 2016 season. Anyone interested in horticulture and gardening is welcome to join the association; one does not have to be a master gardener to be a member. For more information on the UW-Extension Master Gardener program, contact Mark Mayer, agriculture agent, at 608-328-9440.
