TEST GARDEN TIP
Resist the tem ptation to plant frost-tender
annuals— including ageratum , angelonia,
begonia, geranium, impatiens, nasturtium ,
petunia, and zinnia— until your weather is
reliably warm . Look for young, stocky plants.
Tall, spindly stem s are a sign that plants have
been sitting on store shelves too long.
