It has been growing in size for several years now, and it's root zone is bounded by paving stones. Is it too early to stimulate growth by fertilizing? My avg last frost date is April 6, and we have a long, varying winter-and-spring with temps anywhere between 30 and 60 for another 7 weeks or so. Or is the pale color a normal symptom of winter? Our winter is mild and rainy. July 2009 ... June 2010 ... July 2011 ... June 2012 |
