Plums are prone to diseases and now is the time to begin treating to prevent them

MILWAUKEE -- Spring flowers are putting on a prolonged show due to the cool weather. Let’s see some of the beauties we planted last fall.

Plums are prone to diseases and now is the time to begin treating to prevent them. Our tree had two diseases last year that we are going to try to treat this year.

It may not feed your family but planting a pot, a tub or a sack o’ potatoes is fun for the whole family. See how so you can start now.
