Gardener's Check List By the California Association of Nurserymen 1. It's surprising how fast March winds can dry the ground out after a rain. Be sure to water thoroughly and not just wet the top soil signs of drying show up. 2. A good feeding will do wonders for a needy lawn. 3. Feed Azaleas and Camellias with acid food as they go out of bloom. Hold off on Rhodo-dendrons so as not to force new growth to interfere with the bloom. 4. Most leafy salad vegetables and many others, too, are available as seedlings for easy transfer to your kitchen garden. 5. Start lawns now and next month. Your needs from a lawn may vary from your neighbor's. Check it out with a C.A.N. nurseryman before planting.
