Hortiscope

Ron Smith answers questions about flowers, trees, gardens and shrubs for the last time.

Readers: With my exit from the Hortiscope column and retirement, I have been asked by many how to get information on horticultural problems.

The answer simply is to contact your local NDSU Extension agent. If the agent is not sufficiently schooled in horticulture to answer your questions, he or she will know where to turn to get the answer.

Here some people to whom you can direct questions:

Todd Weinmann in Cass County at todd.weinmann@ndsu.edu
Steve Sagaser in Grand Forks County at stevan.sagaser@ndsu.edu
Jackie Buckley in Morton County at jackie.buckley@ndsu.edu
Tom Kalb in Bismarck at tom.kalb@ndsu.edu

To find all of the archived Hortiscope columns, go to http://www.ag.ndsu.edu/news/columns/hortiscope/.

Finally, for the horticulture news blog and answers to questions, go to http://www.ag.ndsu.edu/horticulture/.

With all of these wonderful resources at your disposal, how can you not advance your horticultural knowledge?

I wish all of you a happy and green 2013, and thanks for the 27-plus great years.

Slainte!

Ron
