RUNDLE AY is the month we look forward to more than any other, because it brings to us the long anticipated color of flowers to our garden, after a long winter. In some areas you may have had some early bloom of spring bulbs or early shrub bloom in April, but may brings the first big splash of color. We look forward with greatest expectations to the blossoms of the fruit trees and ornamental flowering trees such as magnolia, flowering cherries, flowering plum, and hawthorne. We can scarcely wait to see some new varieties of the fall-planted May-flower- ing tulips. Now your rock garden is be- coming a blaze of colour with the phlox sublata and other alpine plants, such as aubretia, arabis, and primulas. But with these many pleasures May brings its 'many duties. This is the time for planting both in the ornamental and vegetable garden. Before you can plant you must prepare the soil by cultivation, and add a complete plant food. If the soil is heavy and sticky you could add some humus, or peat moss to let the air into the soil. In case of too light or sandy soil this treatment would offset drying out in the hot weather. You can plant some garden seeds in early May, such as peas and radish, but in most areas you would not be safe from frost until after May 20 to May 30. If you have started some tomatoes, cabbage, peppers, or flowers in your hot bed or cold frame you can plant these outside near the end of the month. If you have not started any plants you will find all the varieties you wish at garden centre, or local greenhouse. For a shady spot in your garden be sure to plant some Tuberous Begonias. You are too late now to Start the bulbs, but you can start the potted plants. These will give you a great variety of color in damp shady places where you have had difficulty getting color from annuals. Also try a few in your window boxes, on the east or north side of your home. When setting out your annuals for con- tinuous summer color, you might find grouping of separate colors to be more attractive than mixing them. Roses should be planted early this month in order to get good bloom in June. Your old roses will also want plant food if you did not get it on in April. Shade trees, flowering shrubs, ever- greens and perennials can be planted up until the new growth appears. But after the leaves have formed they will require very careful handling, if they are to sur- vive. Be sure to water all newly planted plants or trees at time of planting and during .prolonged dry periods. Forsythia, quince, flowering almond, and other shrubs that have finished bloom- ing should be pruned now, rather than in fall or spring. Take out some old wood each year. When fertilizing your lawn or garden you should keep in mind that in most areas this is the year that the white gtubs (June bug larvae) will be feeding on grass roots and plant roots in your garden. You can kill this pest with several different materials which you can buy already mixed in the fertilizer for you.
