Root Concerns - A Horticultural Newsletter

Root Concerns, a gardening newsletter produced by the Cornell Cooperative Extensions of Rensselaer, Albany, and Schenectady Counties, is distributed free via email. Issues usually cover a potpourri of topics from A (as in A Horizon, the top level of soil) to Z (as in zygopetalum, a type of orchid).

The current issue,  January - February, 2018, of Root Concerns includes articles about mums (i.e.  chrysanthemums) recently exhibited at the Smith College Botanic Garden's greenhouse in Northampton, MA; a reminiscence on a Christmas cactus; selecting seeds to grow;  starting vegetables indoors; making gourd birdhouses; a short history of corn and even more.

To subscribe to the newsletter just register with Marcie Mohnoutka via  mmp74@cornell.edu at the  Rensselaer County Cooperative Extension.

You can also peruse the archive of  back issues from a link in the  Related Resources list located on the  right side of the blog.
