ing the late summer to promote the growth of sturdy plants.

Perennial plants will be ready for moving to flower beds and borders this fall at about the time of the first frost. Transplant them with a good ball of soil around the roots.

After transplanting, apply a oneinch layer of mulch — sawdust, peat moss or similar material — to conserve soil moisture and help control weeds.

The young plants should be protected during the winter with several inches of coarse mulch such as stiff straw, corn stalks or evergreen branches.

Come spring, the borders and the flower garden should bloom.
