Gardening on the Cheap

From Cathie Gandel at AARP Bulletin .

Create a gorgeous garden on the cheap with these five tips:

• For free advice, join a garden club, ask questions at a local nursery or call your state's cooperative extension service.

• Take photos of your flowering bulbs, so that in the fall you don't buy what you already have.

• Sprinkle crushed eggshells on your soil. They're a good organic fertilizer, plus they'll keep snails, slugs and cutworms away.

• Don't buy that costly once-a-year tool like a garden tiller or leaf shredder. Rent it.

• Don't forget the dump. Frugal gardeners have found bags of rotting soil, pots, trellises and even hoses there.
