Great Soils Seminar, February 2010

Handful of soil

A great soil is what makes beautiful roses, wonderful vegetables, healthy trees, and keeps our perennials and annuals looking vibrant every year. Understanding basic soil management is the most important thing a gardener can ever learn.

During the "Great Soils Seminar" in February, Barry Fugatt, Director of Horticulture, taught what it takes to make a soil truly healthy and productive and how to maintain that productivity over the long haul. Participants learned how to help their perennials survive and prosper each year, their annuals make their beds pop with bold color, and their trees survive the Oklahoma weather, all through proper soil management.
