10 Can't Miss Winter Gardening Tips 1. Take it easy wth any kind of de-icer/salts around plants. If you must use them, be careful of any runoff into plants, lawn or surface water. Better to use fertilizer. 2. Be certain to rotate houseplants weekly to keep them uniform in shape and growth. 3. While you're at it, keep houseplat leaves free of dust. A shower now and then should do the trick! 4. Haven't put n your plow stakes? May be too late if the ground is frozen. 5. Always keep bird feeders stocked for the winter. Plus an unfrozen water source is a real treat for our feathered friends. 6. Avoid walking on frozen turf; bare spots next spring could be used as evidence! 7. Seed catalogs are arriving daily.
