Nature is our biggest source of color inspiration. Summer flowers and even winter greens and browns give us ideas that will always look fresh.Tell us: How did you choose a favorite color for your room?More: Meet Pantone's Color of the Year, Tangerine TangoHow to Find the Right GrayHow to Find the Right BlueHow to Find the Right WhiteHow to Find the Right Green
added by J. Peterson Garden Design to Texas Gardener's February Checklist
Fertilize flower and vegetable gardens. Early in the month, work some compost or organic fertilizer into your flower and vegetable beds so the soil is ready to go when spring hits. Try compost teas, liquid fertilizers, worm castings, cottonseed meal or compost from your own compost pile. Rake the mulch to the side and work the fertilizer into the top couple of inches of soil, then rake smooth and replace the mulch. Ask your nursery for a fertilizer recommendation — nobody knows the local soil and typical garden problems better than the staff at a good local garden center.
