Gardening Question of the Week: What Can I Plant or Put on Surface Tree Roots?
Several people have written in to ask whether they can will in the area around trees that have lots of surface roots. They either want recommendations for ground covers or theyre thinking of adding soil or mulch. Not all tree roots will protrude above the surface, but those that do are coming up for a reason - they need oxygen. So covering the roots is seldom a wise thing to do. Either the tree suffers or your patience will, as the roots will continue to try and come up for air. Steve Nix, About.coms Guide to Forestry, has some tips for dealing with surface tree roots, but for the most part, youre going to have to learn to work around them.

You might be able to establish a low growing ground cover that can handle the dry shade under trees, but not compete with the trees root system. Something like Lamium or Epimedium would work. Or you can just move your chairs under there and enjoy of the cool respite and the knowledge that youre doing something good for the environment by letting your tree grow. Trees arent just for beauty and shade. Trees also absorb carbon dioxide emitted by cars and power plants, before it ever reaches the upper atmosphere and traps heat around the Earths surface. Which trees offset global warming best?

Most importantly, keep a close eye on pests and disease, then sit back and enjoy your garden and all the efforts you put in earlier in the year to get it where it is now.

What's Your Favorite Fragrant Flower?
My area has had a lot of rain this year. It seems to come in torrents whenever something fragrant is about to bloom. The lilacs rotted, the peonies were beaten down. Even Junes roses were a bit of a wash out. Its all the more disappointing because Im finding it harder and harder to find the old fashioned varieties that have a rich scent. So many hybrids have sacrificed fragrance for bigger, better, longer blooms. Thank goodness for my lavender and sweet peas.

The original owners of my yard planted some old varieties of lilacs and peonies and every spring I bless them for doing so. Wouldnt it be wonderful if your whole garden could give off so much fragrance? Whats your favorite fragrant flower? Let us know how to bring fragrance back into our gardens.

Getting Kids to Love Their Vegetable Garden
If your kids already love their vegetables, you may not need to tempt them with cauliflower that looks like it was baked in cheese or beets that look like peppermints. But it can be fun anyway. Tempt your kids (young and old) into the vegetable garden with a rainbow of funky looking veggies.
