wood, broadleaf evergreens, and many deciduous trees and shrubs can be propagated this month. Insert evergreen cuttings in vermiculite or sand in a cool greenhouse. Tie bundles of deciduous cuttings together and bury in sand in a old frame. Remove in early spring and plant in a nursery bed.

Thoroughly mulch azaleas, rhododendrons, camellias, and laurel after the ground freezes. They prefer acidic materials such as oak leaves and pine needles, but any mixed dry leaves will do if oak and pine are not available.

Be careful when using deicing salts around driveways and walks this winter; salt is toxic to many flowers, trees, shrubs and lawn grasses. Sand, sawdust, or a combination of these work well for deicing walks and will not injure plants.
