Burkhart believes the plant world alone could provide a life tim e supply of e x c itin g items treasured in any garden Since the Christmas season comes when plants are dor mant and easily moved without ill effects there’s no lim it on what may be chosen. Another group of items falls in the category of equipment and supplies for use indoors or out. Gardeners appreciate those hardware items that make short w ork of the less challenging chores necessary to keep a garden moving. Newest in this group is the low-cost microtube irrigation systems operating to apply water only near the plant roots and without getting foliage wet to encourage disease. E n v iro n m e n ta lly m inded horticulturists w ill appreciate the garden refuse grinders used to reduce the compost pile to a small, but neat bit of organic m atter to be used for making up shortages of nor m ally available fertilizers. Even if vour gardener takes his hobby lightly and tends to be a socialite type of garden grower, he can proudly show off his new garden clothes consisting of anything from a rain suit complete with hat and waterproof footwear to knee pads and even summer clothes amounting to no more than sandals plus working shorts to remain comfortable. Burkhart says to visit to any garden ce nte r w ill f i l l an otherwise blank mind w ith hundreds of ideas suitable for any budget. Santa visit Hoodland shopping plaza MR.
