Homegrown NH: Multiply your perennials this fall (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Dividing perennials — digging up the plant and splitting it into multiple plants — allows the roots more space to grow and improves overall plant health. In the fall, the soil is still warm enough to allow root growth before winter, and plants are shifting energy into roots instead of foliage or flowers. If you notice your plants are producing fewer blooms or growing outward with an empty center, then it’s time to divide your perennials, according to Homegrown NH Host Emma Erler, lead horticultu
Homegrown NH: Plant trees and shrubs this fall (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Gardeners get excited about planting in spring, but fall is actually a better time to plant trees and shrubs, according to Homegrown NH Host Emma Erler, lead horticulturist at Kirkwood Gardens.

Homegrown NH Host Emma Erler, lead horticulturist at Kirkwood Gardens, says most gardeners practice “cold composting,” allowing kitchen scraps and yard waste to gradually decompose into organic matter over time. She says it can take between six months and two years to fully break down. To be usable, compost should be dark and crumbly, damp but
Homegrown NH: Get rid of 'creeping Jenny' for good (opens the original)
Read excerpt
“How do I get rid of creeping Jenny?” asks Carole, a Homegrown New Hampshire listener. “Any help would be greatly appreciated!” Creeping Jenny (Lysimachia nummularia), also called moneywort, has long been used in gardens, pots and hanging baskets for its bright yellow color. “It makes a lovely ground cover and can be a nice spiller out of containers,” says Homegrown NH Host Emma Erler, lead horticulturist at Kirkwood Gardens. “Unfortunately, though, it is very aggressive and can easily escape ga
