		<description><![CDATA[Answer: The best time to prune citrus trees is anytime from March to August, after the fruit has set so you can see where it is. That way you don&#8217;t prune off any of your harvest. You can remove any &#8220;suckers&#8221; or shoots that are growing from the root stock at any time. Topping the [...]]]></description>

		<guid isPermaLink="false">http://verdego.com/?p=1623</guid>
		<description><![CDATA[Answer: The planting period for Amaryllis is October until the end of April and their flowering period is late December until the end of June. Their flowering time is usually 2-3 months and larger bulbs will produce more flowers. It is usually good practice to place the base and roots of the bulbs in lukewarm [...]]]></description>

		<guid isPermaLink="false">http://verdego.com/?p=1621</guid>
		<description><![CDATA[Answer: The best time to prune Crape Myrtles would be in late winter. You may see a lot of people doing it before them but don&#8217;t let peer pressure from others get to you. If you prune them too early, we may get a warming trend to where they would start putting out new growth. [...]]]></description>

		<guid isPermaLink="false">http://verdego.com/?p=1618</guid>
		<description><![CDATA[Answer: When pruning palms you should really only prune off the fronds that completely brown. If they have any green still left in them, they are still pulling nutrients from that frond. A lot of people&#8217;s Roebelenii palms got hit pretty hard by last years winter. If you have trunks that don&#8217;t have any new [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Answer: Regarding your question about Foxtail palms surviving the cold, I like to be safe and say no. They are not zoned for this area and are more of a down south palm. Unfortunately, you just never know what type of winter we are going to have. If it is a mild winter and you [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Answer: Regarding your question about pruning your knockout roses and magnolias, now is actually a great time to prune. But, do it soon. You don&#8217;t want to wait too close to winter because pruning promotes new growth and if pruned too late, the cold weather would damage that new growth and the plant could shock [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Answer: Regarding your question about your Magnolia, the white spots that you are seeing are called Scale and it is an insect. The white is actually a waxy protective coating and the insect is underneath feeding on the leaves of the plants. With Scale on your Magnolia, you will probably also notice black sooty mold [...]]]></description>

It is a groundcover that has yellow Black-Eyed Susan looking flower. It is a Florida native and does very well in this area, but be careful because it can take over a bed [...]]]></description>

		<guid isPermaLink="false">http://verdego.com/?p=1394</guid>
		<description><![CDATA[Answer: Regarding your question about planting avocados, they are more of a tropical plant and if we get a winter like we had last year, they will more than likely take a pretty bad hit. Spring time would probably be the optimal time to plant them so that they can get established before winter comes. [...]]]></description>

We recommend using Horticultural Oil to help control them. It is an oil that when applied to the entire plant, top to bottom, [...]]]></description>
