Ann Wright: February in the garden, time for bare root trees

Columnist Choose a bare-root tree that has a hearty trunk with a diameter from half and inch to five/eight-inch. Roots of the bare-root plant should be strong, unbroken and relatively straight. Avoid plants with roots that are kinked or twisted. Photo courtesy UC Davis Photo courtesy UC Davis After some much-needed rain, the ground has had a nice soaking which makes preparing spaces for planting much easier. Keeping in mind that new plants and trees require additional water the first years of growth, this is a good time to plant bare root fruit trees and vining berries. The local nurseries have a nice variety of trees and vines from which to choose. Here are some tips for selecting and planting bare root trees, from my go-to fruit tree book, “The Home Orchard Growing Your Own Deciduous Fruit and Nut Trees” by Chuck A Ingels, Pam M. Geisel, and M.V, Norton.

Turn to gardening books for comfort and inspiration

CORVALLIS — If you can’t garden, why not read about it? Books bring us comfort when the gloomy weather of winter is upon us. Even gardeners who love winter enjoy a good read. Add a fire and a cup of tea and relax with one of these books recommended by Extension Service horticulturists. There is something for every reader — a memoir by Hope Jahren tells the story of two scientists and their love for trees; and Extension’s popular “Trees to Know in Oregon and Washington” is heavy with photos of both coniferous and deciduous trees. Check with your local library or bookstores, or find them online.
