Gardeners urged to leave winter plants standing for wildlife
Original: Ask the Master Gardener: Numerous plants offer shelter and food for wildlife over winter
A Master Gardener column in the Brainerd Dispatch explains that numerous garden plants can provide shelter and food for wildlife through the winter months. Leaving seed heads, stems and grasses standing rather than cutting back beds gives birds, pollinators and other animals cover and nourishment until spring, the column advises.
Why now: Gardeners are planning late-autumn cleanup and looking for wildlife-friendly advice as winter sets in.
