Do you have questions about your plants or garden? Ask a Master Gardener!
The Master Gardeners of Montgomery County Cooperative Extension Service will answer your gardening questions on the 2nd Tuesday and 4th Friday of each month from April through October at Marilyn J. Praisner Library.

- Select the right plants and trees for your site.
- Decide when and how to test your soil.
- Feed your turf without feeding the Chesapeake Bay.
- Identify weeds, insects and disease.
- Avoid blanket use of herbicides and pesticides.
- Identify and avoid killing beneficial insects.
- Learn how and when to prune your trees and shrubs.
- Chose the right mulch for your garden.
