Two Free Florida-Friendly Gardening Workshops in June

Best Management Practices for Residential Landscape Care

Citrus County Utilities Florida-Friendly LandscapingTM Program is offering a free garden-

ing workshop on June 16 from 2:00-3:30 pm. Practices Nature Coast gardeners should

utilize including proper fertilization, responsible pest management, material selection and

efficient use of supplemental irrigation will be topics discussed. Selecting the right plant

and planting it in the right location is often the principle which provides gardening success.

Establishing and maintaining the proper material reduces the amount of water, fertilizer

and pest control practices required to sustain the landscape garden you create. Classes are

held at the Citrus County Extension Service building, located at 3650 W Sovereign Path

in Lecanto. Please contact Steven Davis at (352) 527-5708 to confirm your participation.

ment choices. The soil's pH, proper fertilization choices and appropriate supplemental
