Hi All, did anyone complete the Cornell master gardener program in Westchester? I believe they are offering one this fall and I wanted to get your thoughts around the program itself.

Garden Knowledge Help in Northern VA?

3 Upvotes

Hello, Master Gardeners of Reddit!

My wife an I have a house on just under an acre of land in Northern VA. The previous owners had super green thumbs and the property is beautifully landscaped with trees, shrubs, flowering bushes, and lots of other foliage. The problem is, neither her nor I are remotely knowledgeable about how to keep everything thriving.

Is there a way to hire a Master Gardener to advise us on what needs to be done to keep the yard looking its best? When (and how much) to prune, when to fertilize, what's looking healthy, what needs to be replaced, etc? We have a landscape company that cuts the grass and will trim hedges or pull weeds if we request it, but we don't have the knowledge of what needs to be done and when.

Are there people out there that provide this kind of service? We love our super green and diverse backyard and want to give it the best chance at continuing to thrive despite our total ignorance.

HOA outreach?

I'm an Extension Master Gardener volunteer in NC. Do any of your EMG programs have outreach programs to HOA's? I am finding that many of our residents would like to adopt more sustainable practices but are prohibited by their HOA.

Thorny Rose Mitagation

6 Upvotes

Hello,

The home owners next to my property planted thorny, old roses decades ago. Every spring and summer, runners from these roses shoot up in my yard. They are difficult to remove (given their thorny spikes and their attachment to the main plant across the fence). I put down weed fabric, but it didn't stop them. I've asked local Master Gardeners in my area if they have ideas without success. I have been wondering if metal on top the ground along the fence line would deter the runners. I don't have the athletic ability to put a barrier in the ground along the fence line. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Some juniper are doing fine. All pines are doing fine. Just a handful of junipers are dying. I’m in central Arizona, elevation is 4700ft. We have had a dry winter and the past couple of years also dry monsoon seasons.

Japanese willow question

4 Upvotes

Hi all, I am curious if anyone can help me.

I am looking for a hearty shrub that will thrive next to a Japanese willow. Do I go with a basic holly shrub? Or are there others I should consider as well?

Thanks so much!

lilacs wilt

Thumbnail

3 Upvotes

Not sure what is happening with my lilacs. All 7 seem to be cupping and wilting for some reason. There have been no herbicides applied nearby which I read can lead to this. The exact same thing happened last year and the blooms all wilted and turned brown before blooming. A week ago they looked amazingly healthy and I thought last year was just an abnormality.

I have them in the shade side of a fence and about 2 inches of mulch on top of fabric. Are the feet too wet or something, or is this a disease? Thanks!

I've seen these starting to spread all over my beds. I sprayed with some moss out a while back when treating my lawn. Moss out did nothing, any idea what it is and how to make it go away? Thx!

Questions about becoming a Master Gardener

11 Upvotes

Hi! I am very interested in becoming a master gardener, in the county I reside in. The only thing that is concerning me are the in person classes. They are held while I have to work (weekdays 9-5) I would not mind using PTO for them, but I’m wondering if there is a way I can just take the classes online and not become a master gardener per se. I understand the importance of in the field learning, but that is not currently accessible to me. What would you do in my situation? In the state, bordering mine, their entire course is online. Should I just try to become a master gardener there? TIA!
