LandscapExperts Tip of the Week, May 27
Fancy peony rings too expensive for your garden budget? Tomato cages can be put to double duty in the flower garden. Cut a 3-ring tomato cage in half HORIZONTALLY using a bolt cutter or hacksaw. Position the 2-ring half above peonies or fall-blooming mums that have a tendency to flop over. Push in the 1-ring half above smaller perennials to keep them tidy without the bother of individual staking. .
