Gardening / Watering

Outdoor plants may need WATER – January 2026 has been DRY

If you’ve potted up, or planted, outdoor plants recently you might need to WATER them since much of our area has had little rain the last 3-4 weeks.

These cyclamen were dug up and put in pots last month. They were dry to the second knuckle on an index finger (about 2 – 3″).
Cyclamen, oregano, turtle’s head and many other plants “potted up” in fall typically don’t require much watering if they are held outdoors, but, this winter has been especially dry, so, be sure and check your plants, even those in the ground.
These, and many other plants, are destined for the garden club’s Plant Sale May 16, 2026.
Happy gardening!
