Question From: K. Lesnau - MICHIGAN
Q: I've been seeing posts going around that we should not be cleaning up the flower beds until temps reach a consistent 50 degrees because we may be throwing out/disturbing hibernating bugs (bees, etc.) Is this true?
A: Yes it is true, Also, the dry stems and leaves protect tender emerging leaves of perennials from late season frosts. Best And Happy Yardening, Nancy,
