(00:43):
And joining us in studio is Lisa Breggs from the
Bruce Company.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
Lisa, how you doing.
Speaker 3 (00:47):
I'm good? How are you?
Speaker 2 (00:48):
I'm doing absolutely fantastic, And boy, we were just kind
of chatting about the forecast a little bit before the program. Yes,
seventy on Friday, high fifties on Thursday, day fifty and
I'm working backwards here, but I like that.
Speaker 3 (01:03):
Low of fifty seven on Saturday.
Speaker 1 (01:06):
Oh, that's that'll get things popping.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
Well, I bet we start to see some grass screening up. Oh,
I'm great.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
Oh that would be so fantastic. That's a hard to me.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
That's one of the hardest parts is like, I don't
I like winter all fine and well, and I love
little snow cover, but like when the grass is just
kind of brown and door.
Speaker 3 (01:30):
Yeah there's snow cover. You don't see it, but it
is depressing. Yeah, it's just that sort of weird tan color.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
It's funny how quickly it wakes, the grass will weighs.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
Yeah. You have a few warm days and a couple
of warm nights, and then you get some rain some
other's a perfect combination and all you wake up, you
go to bed and it's brown, and you wake up
the next morning and all of a sudden, the screen
it's like, whoa, how did that happen?
Speaker 2 (01:52):
Hey, you're excited, of course it's green, and you're already
thinking about I got to mold this stuff or not kidding?
Speaker 1 (01:57):
Is there anything I know?
Speaker 2 (01:58):
We're going to talk about some sprays, small things, but
it's I think for lawn care we can be doing
right now.
Speaker 3 (02:02):
Is this a No, it's a little early for any
pre emergent that you would put down that would be
your first, your first lawn care thing. It's too thatchy
for you to rake it, so just leave it alone
for right now.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
It's hard, though, it's really hard hard.
Speaker 3 (02:17):
I don't know. I don't have any lot in my yard,
so I.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
Badly wanted to go out and do some de thatching
over the lat No. No, it's probably too early. I
don't want to let.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
That's so much just satisfying. It's fun.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
There are things though that we can be applying out
there to not not for the grass, well kind of
for the grass ultimately, but also for your garden and
things in general. So spray some other things if you've
got issues.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
Yep.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
There are a couple of problems that we've been seeing
reoccurring more and more every spring, and the first one
is called peach leaf curl okay, and it is a
fungal disease and what it does if you have it.
You know it? You're the peach is kind of the
leaves sort of roll in together and kind of contort
(03:01):
and look almost misshapen. Are you googling of pictures?
Speaker 2 (03:05):
Yeah, cause it sounds it sounds far too adorable to
be something.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
That's It's not that adorable though, because they don't just curl.
They also kind of get this weird sort of swollen
your look, you're making a face, right, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
It does not look good.
Speaker 3 (03:16):
No, it does not look good. So what you want
to do is you want to spray with a copper
fungicide before the buds break. So you don't want to
do that. Why it's blooming and peaches and a lot
of members of the pruna's family tend to flower before
they leave out. So when you start to see those
(03:37):
buds swell, that's when you want to go ahead and spray.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
But a little coding on just keep them. It's a fun.
Speaker 3 (03:42):
It's a fun. Yeah, copper, it's a fungicide. It's a fun.
It's a fungal issue. Now, this one is this next
one is an insect issue. Oh okay, And this is
something we've been seeing more and more of. It's called
magnolia scale. Go ahead and google this is gross too.
I guess scale are an insect that they are only
vulnera for a little bit of time, usually around the
end of summer of August early September, when they hatch
(04:07):
and the crawlers are vulnerable. But the rest of the time,
what they do is so they come out in the
end of the summer and they mature and lay eggs
in the buds for next year, and then they go
and they build a little covering over themselves, like a
waxy coating that looks like a scale, which is why
(04:28):
they call it magnolia scale, and it's really quite devastating.
It can take down a healthy magnolia in a couple
of years. So the first thing to do with it
is actually a dormant oil spray, And if you spray
that on the buds, what it does is it suppresses
the eggs that those insects laid at the end of
(04:49):
the summer before they come out and build their little
because once they're in that little scaled coating thing that
they make, it's like a little quantt hut. They're protected
in there. So what you want to do is a
dormant oil spray to sort of minimize the amount of
eggs that hatch. Now, if you have magnolias in your
(05:10):
yard and they're healthy, this is one of those things
where I sort of recommend that you treat preventatively because
it can spread pretty quickly from tree to tree. If
you've had a little bit of magnolia scale, like on
a branch or two that you've noticed, you're going to
want to spray the rest of the tree to save it.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
And magnolias are beautiful trees are.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
They're pretty beautiful I would say three years out of five,
and it really depends on the weather because they're another
thing that sort of blooms early, and those flowers have
such a lot of surface area. They're one of those
things when we get some nice weather and things sort
(05:54):
of pop a little early. They're very susceptible to frost
and wind damage. And so a couple of years out
of five they'll be really glorious and the weather conditions
will be perfect, and magnolias all over town will be
looking glorious. The other years they start to they start
to open, and then we get some cold weather and
(06:14):
the petals alter brown. So I've always said that, you know,
magnolias are great. Put them in a place where you
can enjoy them. But they're not your feature tree, oh,
because when they're not looking good, they're not looking good.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
I do like their leaves, though they've got that kind
of waxy Yes, well you are.
Speaker 3 (06:34):
But some of the evergreen magnolias have a much more
substantial leaf than the ones that grow here. So the
evergreen ones they also have that brown felty coating on
the bottom. Yeah, those are southern, so but we can
grow quite a few here. The star magnolias, the saucers,
(06:54):
they're perfectly hearty here. It's just the timing of the
blooming and they're they're you know, there's susceptibility to weather damage. Now,
there is a variety called Sensation. It's a yellow one
that blooms later. So I have one of those, so
it's I don't worry about it, okay. But it still
has the same you know, fuzzy exposed buds and all
(07:16):
that kind of thing. But it's it's very pretty.
Speaker 1 (07:18):
So if you see little little scales and it looks like.
Speaker 3 (07:23):
Google it, it's like little bumps on the branch tips.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
That peach curl was way grosser although they're both.
Speaker 3 (07:30):
The grossest one ever though, is cedar apple rust. Google.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
Let's see, cedar.
Speaker 3 (07:38):
Apple rust is hard because there's not a whole time
you could do about it. You just have to sort
of prevent the damage on other things.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
How does that happen?
Speaker 3 (07:48):
I know? And the thing is about the size of
the tip of your baby's finger.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
Yes, they look like little I don't know what, you
just like little.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
Those are called teleal horns, those orange jelly bit.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
So when you get into the office this morning, you
want to just.
Speaker 3 (08:06):
Yeah, don't do it while you're driving.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
No, no, no, no, no, you don't want to do that.
But when you get in check these things out.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
As far so for we talked about a couple of
magnolia and of course repeat anything else we can be
thinking about.
Speaker 3 (08:19):
You could be doing some pruning, I would you know
if you need to prune your birches and maples, it's
safe to do so. But we're going to see some
sap running just because we've had the warm weather, so
until pressure equalizes, so you'll you'll make a cut and
it'll be dripping, but it's not going to hurt the plan.
(08:41):
It doesn't hurt the tree at all they're they're just
it's just because they're sap. They're they're early to start,
which is why we use them for syrup, and so
they're just we you know, we call it bleeding. It's
not really bleeding. It's just the sap coming out. Yeah,
so it looks alarming, but this is why you make
a small hole and you get buckets and buckets of staff.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
It's it works that way, and it's a it's as
we talk with Lisa. By the way, it's a great
day to get on into the Middleton Gardens of the
Bruce Company. It's also great day if you've got a question,
love to get you on the air. Six eight three
two one thirteen ten. That's six eight three two one
thirteen ten. Mention getting into the Middleton Gardens center right
a twenty thirty Parma Street. The Facebook page, the Bruce
Company online, Bruce Company dot com. That's Bruce Coompany dot com.
(09:25):
And while you're online, the calendars filling up events, workshops,
you got some stuff.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
I spent a couple hours on Thursday and Friday, Yeah,
putting stuff up on the website. So I have all
most of the events there. I think there are a
couple that we're still trying to work out. But all
the workshops are up for April and May, so we've
added a couple new ones. There's a herb Garden workshop
(09:50):
where you can make a container herb garden.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
Yeah, can you get can you harvest them? You got
to get like a little to get in there? Are
they I'm thinking of like a container being kind of
like a small hold.
Speaker 3 (10:04):
Oh no, it's usually we're going to do some mixes.
Speaker 1 (10:06):
Oh so we'll have.
Speaker 3 (10:08):
Some ideas for maybe to theme them out, Okay, like
if you wanted to do something for drying flowers, if
you want to do something for tea, things that work
well with Italian food.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
Nice.
Speaker 3 (10:21):
Yeah, so we'll plant some combinations that make sense together.
Speaker 1 (10:24):
Get terrarium.
Speaker 3 (10:25):
Uh, there's a terrarium one coming up there. I think
there's two terrarium ones. Actually there's one later, a couple
of herb garden ones, some annual containers. I wanted to
trying to plant something for cutting gardens, but I'm not
exactly sure how to structure it. So that's still in
my back pocket.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
How do we define a cutting garden?
Speaker 3 (10:46):
Well, I'm thinking about for flowers, I'm thinking about a
garden for flowers.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
Okay, that should be nice.
Speaker 3 (10:51):
Yeah, I think so too.
Speaker 1 (10:53):
Stay tuned down that I also see Do I see ponies?
Speaker 3 (10:56):
Ponies? Oh? Yes, yes, the horses are coming on the fifth,
but we seem looking at the calendar, Yes, April fifth,

(11:16):
event for all the peeps and also the horses themselves,
we're going to sort of cap So go to the
website and please register for it.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
Do these horses not like being called ponies?
Speaker 3 (11:30):
As I suspect that their owner would rather that I
called the morses. Okay, but they're kind of pony sized
for me. But they're they're really wonderful.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
Yeah yeah.
Speaker 3 (11:42):
I always get to lead one through the store, so
I kind of get a kick off it. I figure
there are, you know, a few perks to being manager
of the store, and one of them is when the
Icelandic horses come, I get to like lead them through
the store.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
That's why you worked hard for all those years.
Speaker 3 (11:57):
That's right, exactly for that.
Speaker 1 (11:59):
So one day, kids, listen up, horse.

Okay, And that is what's the theme here?
Speaker 3 (15:04):
You in you know I The theme are is like
old fashioned flowers. Yeah, some of them have quite interesting names.
I haven't named it yet. I always seem to name
it like midweek in your head, pops it into my
head like, oh, that's perfect, So it's it's I usually
don't like make the name known till Friday. When I say, oh,
(15:26):
well the two winners of you know that, you say tomato,
I say tomato.
Speaker 1 (15:30):
Right, did we have a today you'll find out?
Speaker 3 (15:33):
Yeah, that's yes, I'll have to I'll look at it
this morning the quarter fine, and then I'll decide to
announce it the winner, and then later this afternoon, I
think around three ish is when the next matchup starts.
So you can vote all three times, okay, and there
are three so there's the three chances to win every
(15:53):
every matchup that I pull a winner from every matchup, okay,
and you win gift cards.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
The tomato tomato is it's purple.
Speaker 3 (16:01):
It's purple bumble bee okay, which was the winner over
Brad's Atomic Grape. Oh and then Wisconsin fifty five, which
was the winner over I believe the Red Zebra.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (16:19):
I feel like you've mentioned your remember the atomic the
atomic grape one though, I feel like you've mentioned that
that's it.
Speaker 3 (16:27):
I do love Brad's Atomic Grape.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
I thought that it's weird.
Speaker 3 (16:31):
Though, because it's yellow and kind of this blue purple streaking.
So I think maybe people don't think it looks as
delicious as it is because it looks weird.
Speaker 1 (16:40):
Okay, But.
Speaker 3 (16:43):
And purple Bumblebee is a rounder red one with like
purple striping and that sort of purple flesh on the inside.
They're both delicious, don't get me wrong.
Speaker 1 (16:53):
Wisconsin fifty five looks like a picturesque to me.
Speaker 3 (16:55):
That is a very Yes, it's a very sort of
standard to make. But there's several. There's Sheboygan, which is
a paste tomato. There's Wisconsin fifty five. There's one called
beaver or no, called beaver Dam as well.
Speaker 1 (17:10):
Oh meats.
Speaker 3 (17:12):
I don't think another state has as many tomatoes named
after cities or places then in Wisconsin. Somebody's probably gonna
prove me wrong look at them all. But in my
limited knowledge of the thousands of tomato varieties that there
are on the planet, I'm good as state. I'm gonna
stake my clay right there planting the flag.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
I know, I know, you guys have a huge variety
at the Bruce Company of Tomatoes. Can we start planting
those indoors? Get them started? Are we still holding.
Speaker 1 (17:42):
Back, tomatoes, holding.
Speaker 3 (17:44):
On, We're still holding back, okay, And I have to
say that beaver Dam's actually a pepper, not a tomato,
So sorry about that. Maybe there's only two, but still
I think that's a lot. What can you plant now?
You can add hot pepper to your list if you haven't.
We talked about that last week. There's not a ton
(18:04):
that usually I go in like two week increments, so
there's early March and then mid March you could add
some things to it. Tomatoes, unless you have a place
with really high light or you have a lighting system,
I would hold off on tomatoes till like mid April,
because once they come up, they grow really fast, and
(18:28):
so you have to be prepared then that they're going
to have enough light so they don't get all stretchy
and lanky, and that you have to be prepared to
uppot them. Peppers. I think that by the end of
the month, like maybe early next week, you could start
other peppers, because peppers grow more slowly. When you see
you see that at when you go and buy the
(18:50):
seedlings at the garden center, the tomato plants are always
bigger than the pepper plants, and.
Speaker 1 (18:55):
The pepper plants that are starting now, those are the ones.
Speaker 2 (18:57):
That the incendiary was, Yes, that bring the heat? They
don't They don't rest they bring the heat, don't they?
Speaker 3 (19:04):
They are the heat they are.
Speaker 1 (19:07):
What else do we got bulbs? Summer summer?
Speaker 3 (19:10):
Yeah, summer blooming bulbs and also the sort of fancy
summer foliage bulbs like kalladiums. You can go ahead and
start that stuff indoors is not a bad idea. Uh,
if you have raised beds in a sunny spot, you
might want to check the soil because you could probably
be outside sewing things like spinach or lettuce or radishes
(19:36):
or peas. You can go ahead and do that, just
be prepared that if we're going to get some low
temps that you're going to want to cover those little
seedlings with a floating row cover or you can put
pots over the top of them, just to keep the
really cold temps off. Potatoes and onion sets came into
(19:58):
the garden center last week. I think it's a little
early for potatoes. They're in the tomato family pepper family,
so they won't do well outside if it gets really cold,
So you're gonna want to hold off on those a
little bit. But that's a process because you start them
and then you pile more soil up on top as
the plants grow. That's how you get lots of potatoes.
Speaker 2 (20:20):
I am shocked by the potatoes coming from such a
tiny seed.
Speaker 3 (20:25):
It comes from a potato, is that it. We don't
sell potato seeds.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
You sell the little pieces.
Speaker 3 (20:29):
You sell seed potatoes. The pieces, they're not piece. We
sell the potatoes and then you cut them up.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
Oh okay, with an eye.
Speaker 3 (20:38):
Yes, I haven't.
Speaker 1 (20:39):
Done this for a number of years, man stuff.
Speaker 3 (20:42):
Because Manson ever done potatoes potatoes?
Speaker 2 (20:44):
Yeah, And I remember just a little the but I
also remember seeing very tiny seeds and I thought, well.
Speaker 3 (20:49):
They would have seeds for sure, because they have flowers.
Speaker 1 (20:52):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (20:53):
So, but nobody starts potatoes from seed. They sell potatoes
from seed potatoes. I know the words seat is in there,
so I know it's like it's.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
Yes, it's not. Actually.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
I do remember though, that the eyes on the on
the little pieces of those go in that.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
Okay, And he said you keep mounding. That makes yeah.
Speaker 3 (21:14):
You sort of plant them kind of low, and then
you cover them with a few inches of soil, and
then as they come up, you mound and then that
way because like I don't know, if you've plant tomato starts,
for instance, and you have a tomato plant and it's
maybe a foot hide, okay, so you can pinch leafs
off the bottom half and actually plant that that deep.
(21:38):
It gives it more stability because tomato plants get quite tall,
especially if you have indeterminate ones. So potatoes, the little
potatoes are sort of it's a tuber, but it comes
off the roots. So the more roots stem you give it,
the more opportunities for roots to come out along the stem,
(22:01):
the more potatoes you're going to have. Man, So this
is why you plant them. You sort of successively bury
them deeper and deeper as they grow, so you get
more potatoes.
Speaker 2 (22:14):
This is worthy of a workshop or to Lisa, it's.
Speaker 3 (22:17):
A long term thing though, like okay, come back every
two weeks and we'll tell you what to do next.
But when I was when I was working in Sheboygan, Yes,
we were talking about Thanksgiving and one of the one
of the farm ladies that worked, their name was Karen,
and she's amazing. But Karen asked me if I grew
my own. We were talking about mashed potatoes, and she
(22:38):
said well, do you grow your own potatoes? And I'm like, no,
Like who does, right? And I felt a little ashamed,
Like I felt a little judged that I did not
grow my own potatoes. So she brought me some of hers. Yeah,
and they were amazing. So yeah, so Karen schooled me.
I don't she may or may have been doing, but
(23:00):
she was right.
Speaker 1 (23:01):
She was right.
Speaker 3 (23:02):
So it's a fun thing to do. And you can
do it if you bought like a big tree or
something last year and you have one of them, you
save those big I always save those big pots because
I haul them around the yard when I'm cleaning. Yeah,
you can plant them in containers. There's a whole sort
of process, but it's it's similar, but instead of digging
(23:25):
a deep hole and filling it up, you're just starting them,
you know, six inches of soil and then you put
the potatoes in there and bury them a little bit,
and as they come up, you can keep filling till
you have a whole big, twenty five gallon bucket. Know
what to do with it, Yeah, full of like raised
bed mix. And then and they actually get harvested end
(23:46):
of July.
Speaker 2 (23:48):
They've got to be the most useful garden thing out.
You can do so many things with a potato.
Speaker 3 (23:54):
Oh, I love potatoes. There's right, somebody's gonna try pave potatoes.
So you cook them like a skull of potato. It's
just butter in like a like a loaf pan. And
then when they're tender, you put a weight on them
(24:15):
so they kind of moot like they condense, okay, and
then you cut them in pieces and then you pan
fry those pieces.
Speaker 1 (24:24):
It's like a tater loaf.
Speaker 3 (24:25):
That soundsod.
Speaker 2 (24:26):
That does sound all right. So you know what we're
doing today. We're all gonna get in and buy some
buy some seed potatoes. I'm gonna get going on that.

Speaker 3 (00:47):
I'm good? How are you?
Speaker 2 (00:48):
I'm doing absolutely fantastic, And boy, we were just kind
of chatting about the forecast a little bit before the program. Yes,
seventy on Friday, high fifties on Thursday, day fifty and
I'm working backwards here, but I like that.
Speaker 3 (01:03):
Low of fifty seven on Saturday.
Speaker 1 (01:06):
Oh, that's that'll get things popping.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
Well, I bet we start to see some grass screening up. Oh,
I'm great.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
Oh that would be so fantastic. That's a hard to me.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
That's one of the hardest parts is like, I don't
I like winter all fine and well, and I love
little snow cover, but like when the grass is just
kind of brown and door.
Speaker 3 (01:30):
Yeah there's snow cover. You don't see it, but it
is depressing. Yeah, it's just that sort of weird tan color.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
It's funny how quickly it wakes, the grass will weighs.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
Yeah. You have a few warm days and a couple
of warm nights, and then you get some rain some
other's a perfect combination and all you wake up, you
go to bed and it's brown, and you wake up
the next morning and all of a sudden, the screen
it's like, whoa, how did that happen?
Speaker 2 (01:52):
Hey, you're excited, of course it's green, and you're already
thinking about I got to mold this stuff or not kidding?
Speaker 1 (01:57):
Is there anything I know?
Speaker 2 (01:58):
We're going to talk about some sprays, small things, but
it's I think for lawn care we can be doing
right now.
Speaker 3 (02:02):
Is this a No, it's a little early for any
pre emergent that you would put down that would be
your first, your first lawn care thing. It's too thatchy
for you to rake it, so just leave it alone
for right now.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
It's hard, though, it's really hard hard.
Speaker 3 (02:17):
I don't know. I don't have any lot in my yard,
so I.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
Badly wanted to go out and do some de thatching
over the lat No. No, it's probably too early. I
don't want to let.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
That's so much just satisfying. It's fun.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
There are things though that we can be applying out
there to not not for the grass, well kind of
for the grass ultimately, but also for your garden and
things in general. So spray some other things if you've
got issues.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
Yep.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
There are a couple of problems that we've been seeing
reoccurring more and more every spring, and the first one
is called peach leaf curl okay, and it is a
fungal disease and what it does if you have it.
You know it? You're the peach is kind of the
leaves sort of roll in together and kind of contort
(03:01):
and look almost misshapen. Are you googling of pictures?
Speaker 2 (03:05):
Yeah, cause it sounds it sounds far too adorable to
be something.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
That's It's not that adorable though, because they don't just curl.
They also kind of get this weird sort of swollen
your look, you're making a face, right, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
It does not look good.
Speaker 3 (03:16):
No, it does not look good. So what you want
to do is you want to spray with a copper
fungicide before the buds break. So you don't want to
do that. Why it's blooming and peaches and a lot
of members of the pruna's family tend to flower before
they leave out. So when you start to see those
(03:37):
buds swell, that's when you want to go ahead and spray.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
But a little coding on just keep them. It's a fun.
Speaker 3 (03:42):
It's a fun. Yeah, copper, it's a fungicide. It's a fun.
It's a fungal issue. Now, this one is this next
one is an insect issue. Oh okay, And this is
something we've been seeing more and more of. It's called
magnolia scale. Go ahead and google this is gross too.
I guess scale are an insect that they are only
vulnera for a little bit of time, usually around the
end of summer of August early September, when they hatch
(04:07):
and the crawlers are vulnerable. But the rest of the time,
what they do is so they come out in the
end of the summer and they mature and lay eggs
in the buds for next year, and then they go
and they build a little covering over themselves, like a
waxy coating that looks like a scale, which is why
(04:28):
they call it magnolia scale, and it's really quite devastating.
It can take down a healthy magnolia in a couple
of years. So the first thing to do with it
is actually a dormant oil spray, And if you spray
that on the buds, what it does is it suppresses
the eggs that those insects laid at the end of
(04:49):
the summer before they come out and build their little
because once they're in that little scaled coating thing that
they make, it's like a little quantt hut. They're protected
in there. So what you want to do is a
dormant oil spray to sort of minimize the amount of
eggs that hatch. Now, if you have magnolias in your
(05:10):
yard and they're healthy, this is one of those things
where I sort of recommend that you treat preventatively because
it can spread pretty quickly from tree to tree. If
you've had a little bit of magnolia scale, like on
a branch or two that you've noticed, you're going to
want to spray the rest of the tree to save it.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
And magnolias are beautiful trees are.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
They're pretty beautiful I would say three years out of five,
and it really depends on the weather because they're another
thing that sort of blooms early, and those flowers have
such a lot of surface area. They're one of those
things when we get some nice weather and things sort
(05:54):
of pop a little early. They're very susceptible to frost
and wind damage. And so a couple of years out
of five they'll be really glorious and the weather conditions
will be perfect, and magnolias all over town will be
looking glorious. The other years they start to they start
to open, and then we get some cold weather and
(06:14):
the petals alter brown. So I've always said that, you know,
magnolias are great. Put them in a place where you
can enjoy them. But they're not your feature tree, oh,
because when they're not looking good, they're not looking good.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
I do like their leaves, though they've got that kind
of waxy Yes, well you are.
Speaker 3 (06:34):
But some of the evergreen magnolias have a much more
substantial leaf than the ones that grow here. So the
evergreen ones they also have that brown felty coating on
the bottom. Yeah, those are southern, so but we can
grow quite a few here. The star magnolias, the saucers,
(06:54):
they're perfectly hearty here. It's just the timing of the
blooming and they're they're you know, there's susceptibility to weather damage. Now,
there is a variety called Sensation. It's a yellow one
that blooms later. So I have one of those, so
it's I don't worry about it, okay. But it still
has the same you know, fuzzy exposed buds and all
(07:16):
that kind of thing. But it's it's very pretty.
Speaker 1 (07:18):
So if you see little little scales and it looks like.
Speaker 3 (07:23):
Google it, it's like little bumps on the branch tips.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
That peach curl was way grosser although they're both.
Speaker 3 (07:30):
The grossest one ever though, is cedar apple rust. Google.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
Let's see, cedar.
Speaker 3 (07:38):
Apple rust is hard because there's not a whole time
you could do about it. You just have to sort
of prevent the damage on other things.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
How does that happen?
Speaker 3 (07:48):
I know? And the thing is about the size of
the tip of your baby's finger.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
Yes, they look like little I don't know what, you
just like little.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
Those are called teleal horns, those orange jelly bit.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
So when you get into the office this morning, you
want to just.
Speaker 3 (08:06):
Yeah, don't do it while you're driving.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
No, no, no, no, no, you don't want to do that.
But when you get in check these things out.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
As far so for we talked about a couple of
magnolia and of course repeat anything else we can be
thinking about.
Speaker 3 (08:19):
You could be doing some pruning, I would you know
if you need to prune your birches and maples, it's
safe to do so. But we're going to see some
sap running just because we've had the warm weather, so
until pressure equalizes, so you'll you'll make a cut and
it'll be dripping, but it's not going to hurt the plan.
(08:41):
It doesn't hurt the tree at all they're they're just
it's just because they're sap. They're they're early to start,
which is why we use them for syrup, and so
they're just we you know, we call it bleeding. It's
not really bleeding. It's just the sap coming out. Yeah,
so it looks alarming, but this is why you make
a small hole and you get buckets and buckets of staff.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
It's it works that way, and it's a it's as
we talk with Lisa. By the way, it's a great
day to get on into the Middleton Gardens of the
Bruce Company. It's also great day if you've got a question,
love to get you on the air. Six eight three
two one thirteen ten. That's six eight three two one
thirteen ten. Mention getting into the Middleton Gardens center right
a twenty thirty Parma Street. The Facebook page, the Bruce
Company online, Bruce Company dot com. That's Bruce Coompany dot com.
(09:25):
And while you're online, the calendars filling up events, workshops,
you got some stuff.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
I spent a couple hours on Thursday and Friday, Yeah,
putting stuff up on the website. So I have all
most of the events there. I think there are a
couple that we're still trying to work out. But all
the workshops are up for April and May, so we've
added a couple new ones. There's a herb Garden workshop
(09:50):
where you can make a container herb garden.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
Yeah, can you get can you harvest them? You got
to get like a little to get in there? Are
they I'm thinking of like a container being kind of
like a small hold.
Speaker 3 (10:04):
Oh no, it's usually we're going to do some mixes.
Speaker 1 (10:06):
Oh so we'll have.
Speaker 3 (10:08):
Some ideas for maybe to theme them out, Okay, like
if you wanted to do something for drying flowers, if
you want to do something for tea, things that work
well with Italian food.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
Nice.
Speaker 3 (10:21):
Yeah, so we'll plant some combinations that make sense together.
Speaker 1 (10:24):
Get terrarium.
Speaker 3 (10:25):
Uh, there's a terrarium one coming up there. I think
there's two terrarium ones. Actually there's one later, a couple
of herb garden ones, some annual containers. I wanted to
trying to plant something for cutting gardens, but I'm not
exactly sure how to structure it. So that's still in
my back pocket.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
How do we define a cutting garden?
Speaker 3 (10:46):
Well, I'm thinking about for flowers, I'm thinking about a
garden for flowers.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
Okay, that should be nice.
Speaker 3 (10:51):
Yeah, I think so too.
Speaker 1 (10:53):
Stay tuned down that I also see Do I see ponies?
Speaker 3 (10:56):
Ponies? Oh? Yes, yes, the horses are coming on the fifth,
but we seem looking at the calendar, Yes, April fifth,

(11:16):
event for all the peeps and also the horses themselves,
we're going to sort of cap So go to the
website and please register for it.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
Do these horses not like being called ponies?
Speaker 3 (11:30):
As I suspect that their owner would rather that I
called the morses. Okay, but they're kind of pony sized
for me. But they're they're really wonderful.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
Yeah yeah.
Speaker 3 (11:42):
I always get to lead one through the store, so
I kind of get a kick off it. I figure
there are, you know, a few perks to being manager
of the store, and one of them is when the
Icelandic horses come, I get to like lead them through
the store.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
That's why you worked hard for all those years.
Speaker 3 (11:57):
That's right, exactly for that.
Speaker 1 (11:59):
So one day, kids, listen up, horse.

Okay, And that is what's the theme here?
Speaker 3 (15:04):
You in you know I The theme are is like
old fashioned flowers. Yeah, some of them have quite interesting names.
I haven't named it yet. I always seem to name
it like midweek in your head, pops it into my
head like, oh, that's perfect, So it's it's I usually
don't like make the name known till Friday. When I say, oh,
(15:26):
well the two winners of you know that, you say tomato,
I say tomato.
Speaker 1 (15:30):
Right, did we have a today you'll find out?
Speaker 3 (15:33):
Yeah, that's yes, I'll have to I'll look at it
this morning the quarter fine, and then I'll decide to
announce it the winner, and then later this afternoon, I
think around three ish is when the next matchup starts.
So you can vote all three times, okay, and there
are three so there's the three chances to win every
(15:53):
every matchup that I pull a winner from every matchup, okay,
and you win gift cards.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
The tomato tomato is it's purple.
Speaker 3 (16:01):
It's purple bumble bee okay, which was the winner over
Brad's Atomic Grape. Oh and then Wisconsin fifty five, which
was the winner over I believe the Red Zebra.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (16:19):
I feel like you've mentioned your remember the atomic the
atomic grape one though, I feel like you've mentioned that
that's it.
Speaker 3 (16:27):
I do love Brad's Atomic Grape.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
I thought that it's weird.
Speaker 3 (16:31):
Though, because it's yellow and kind of this blue purple streaking.
So I think maybe people don't think it looks as
delicious as it is because it looks weird.
Speaker 1 (16:40):
Okay, But.
Speaker 3 (16:43):
And purple Bumblebee is a rounder red one with like
purple striping and that sort of purple flesh on the inside.
They're both delicious, don't get me wrong.
Speaker 1 (16:53):
Wisconsin fifty five looks like a picturesque to me.
Speaker 3 (16:55):
That is a very Yes, it's a very sort of
standard to make. But there's several. There's Sheboygan, which is
a paste tomato. There's Wisconsin fifty five. There's one called
beaver or no, called beaver Dam as well.
Speaker 1 (17:10):
Oh meats.
Speaker 3 (17:12):
I don't think another state has as many tomatoes named
after cities or places then in Wisconsin. Somebody's probably gonna
prove me wrong look at them all. But in my
limited knowledge of the thousands of tomato varieties that there
are on the planet, I'm good as state. I'm gonna
stake my clay right there planting the flag.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
I know, I know, you guys have a huge variety
at the Bruce Company of Tomatoes. Can we start planting
those indoors? Get them started? Are we still holding.
Speaker 1 (17:42):
Back, tomatoes, holding.
Speaker 3 (17:44):
On, We're still holding back, okay, And I have to
say that beaver Dam's actually a pepper, not a tomato,
So sorry about that. Maybe there's only two, but still
I think that's a lot. What can you plant now?
You can add hot pepper to your list if you haven't.
We talked about that last week. There's not a ton
(18:04):
that usually I go in like two week increments, so
there's early March and then mid March you could add
some things to it. Tomatoes, unless you have a place
with really high light or you have a lighting system,
I would hold off on tomatoes till like mid April,
because once they come up, they grow really fast, and
(18:28):
so you have to be prepared then that they're going
to have enough light so they don't get all stretchy
and lanky, and that you have to be prepared to
uppot them. Peppers. I think that by the end of
the month, like maybe early next week, you could start
other peppers, because peppers grow more slowly. When you see
you see that at when you go and buy the
(18:50):
seedlings at the garden center, the tomato plants are always
bigger than the pepper plants, and.
Speaker 1 (18:55):
The pepper plants that are starting now, those are the ones.
Speaker 2 (18:57):
That the incendiary was, Yes, that bring the heat? They
don't They don't rest they bring the heat, don't they?
Speaker 3 (19:04):
They are the heat they are.
Speaker 1 (19:07):
What else do we got bulbs? Summer summer?
Speaker 3 (19:10):
Yeah, summer blooming bulbs and also the sort of fancy
summer foliage bulbs like kalladiums. You can go ahead and
start that stuff indoors is not a bad idea. Uh,
if you have raised beds in a sunny spot, you
might want to check the soil because you could probably
be outside sewing things like spinach or lettuce or radishes
(19:36):
or peas. You can go ahead and do that, just
be prepared that if we're going to get some low
temps that you're going to want to cover those little
seedlings with a floating row cover or you can put
pots over the top of them, just to keep the
really cold temps off. Potatoes and onion sets came into
(19:58):
the garden center last week. I think it's a little
early for potatoes. They're in the tomato family pepper family,
so they won't do well outside if it gets really cold,
So you're gonna want to hold off on those a
little bit. But that's a process because you start them
and then you pile more soil up on top as
the plants grow. That's how you get lots of potatoes.
Speaker 2 (20:20):
I am shocked by the potatoes coming from such a
tiny seed.
Speaker 3 (20:25):
It comes from a potato, is that it. We don't
sell potato seeds.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
You sell the little pieces.
Speaker 3 (20:29):
You sell seed potatoes. The pieces, they're not piece. We
sell the potatoes and then you cut them up.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
Oh okay, with an eye.
Speaker 3 (20:38):
Yes, I haven't.
Speaker 1 (20:39):
Done this for a number of years, man stuff.
Speaker 3 (20:42):
Because Manson ever done potatoes potatoes?
Speaker 2 (20:44):
Yeah, And I remember just a little the but I
also remember seeing very tiny seeds and I thought, well.
Speaker 3 (20:49):
They would have seeds for sure, because they have flowers.
Speaker 1 (20:52):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (20:53):
So, but nobody starts potatoes from seed. They sell potatoes
from seed potatoes. I know the words seat is in there,
so I know it's like it's.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
Yes, it's not. Actually.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
I do remember though, that the eyes on the on
the little pieces of those go in that.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
Okay, And he said you keep mounding. That makes yeah.
Speaker 3 (21:14):
You sort of plant them kind of low, and then
you cover them with a few inches of soil, and
then as they come up, you mound and then that
way because like I don't know, if you've plant tomato starts,
for instance, and you have a tomato plant and it's
maybe a foot hide, okay, so you can pinch leafs
off the bottom half and actually plant that that deep.
(21:38):
It gives it more stability because tomato plants get quite tall,
especially if you have indeterminate ones. So potatoes, the little
potatoes are sort of it's a tuber, but it comes
off the roots. So the more roots stem you give it,
the more opportunities for roots to come out along the stem,
(22:01):
the more potatoes you're going to have. Man, So this
is why you plant them. You sort of successively bury
them deeper and deeper as they grow, so you get
more potatoes.
Speaker 2 (22:14):
This is worthy of a workshop or to Lisa, it's.
Speaker 3 (22:17):
A long term thing though, like okay, come back every
two weeks and we'll tell you what to do next.
But when I was when I was working in Sheboygan, Yes,
we were talking about Thanksgiving and one of the one
of the farm ladies that worked, their name was Karen,
and she's amazing. But Karen asked me if I grew
my own. We were talking about mashed potatoes, and she
(22:38):
said well, do you grow your own potatoes? And I'm like, no,
Like who does, right? And I felt a little ashamed,
Like I felt a little judged that I did not
grow my own potatoes. So she brought me some of hers. Yeah,
and they were amazing. So yeah, so Karen schooled me.
I don't she may or may have been doing, but
(23:00):
she was right.
Speaker 1 (23:01):
She was right.
Speaker 3 (23:02):
So it's a fun thing to do. And you can
do it if you bought like a big tree or
something last year and you have one of them, you
save those big I always save those big pots because
I haul them around the yard when I'm cleaning. Yeah,
you can plant them in containers. There's a whole sort
of process, but it's it's similar, but instead of digging
(23:25):
a deep hole and filling it up, you're just starting them,
you know, six inches of soil and then you put
the potatoes in there and bury them a little bit,
and as they come up, you can keep filling till
you have a whole big, twenty five gallon bucket. Know
what to do with it, Yeah, full of like raised
bed mix. And then and they actually get harvested end
(23:46):
of July.
Speaker 2 (23:48):
They've got to be the most useful garden thing out.
You can do so many things with a potato.
Speaker 3 (23:54):
Oh, I love potatoes. There's right, somebody's gonna try pave potatoes.
So you cook them like a skull of potato. It's
just butter in like a like a loaf pan. And
then when they're tender, you put a weight on them
(24:15):
so they kind of moot like they condense, okay, and
then you cut them in pieces and then you pan
fry those pieces.
Speaker 1 (24:24):
It's like a tater loaf.
Speaker 3 (24:25):
That soundsod.
Speaker 2 (24:26):
That does sound all right. So you know what we're
doing today. We're all gonna get in and buy some
buy some seed potatoes. I'm gonna get going on that.
