Ask a Master Gardener

You could tell by all the freshly-cut lawns this weekend that people were out doing a lot of yard work. As you’re weeding, planting or pruning and have gardening questions that you don’t have the answer to, you can turn to the King County Master Gardeners, a group of volunteers who will help you find the answer.

If you have a burning question that can’t wait until the weekend, try calling the Master Gardener Phone Clinic. The phone number is 206-543-0943, open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday-Friday. Otherwise, take your questions to one of several dozen Master Gardener Clinics around King County. There are several in West Seattle, Burien and White Center. If you don’t know what’s bugging your azalea, not sure what kind of conifer you have in your backyard or want to know what to do about a most lawn, these experts can help.
