Rodd,
Enjoyed your article in the Oklahoman today. I wonder if you could help me with a grass – weed problem in my garden. What is the down side of using a pre-emergent in my garden to control crab grass and a weeds? Will I be able to plant peas, carrots, spinach, cantaloupe etc. from seeds if I use a pre-emergent?

-From the emails-
Good morning, you had an article in our Daily Oklahoman Newspaper several weeks ago concerning a new breed of Lantana, called Bandito lantana, I am hoping that you can tell me of a local supplier of these plants, I really need them for my new corner flower bed?
Any direction you might add will be helpful and appreciated so much.
Mr. Cope

Bandito is a new variety of lantana from Syngenta. I presume you are in the OKC area—I don’t know which nurseries will be stocking this variety for sure but would suggest you check with TLC, Precure’s, Marcum’s or other good local independents on availability. Lantana is a hot weather plant and they usually are available starting somewhere between April 15 and May 1st each year. Thanks for reading our column & hope the lantana do well in your sunny corner bed!

Do you know what a desert willow tree is? Frank finally agreed to an irrigation system and sod for our yard at the new house! We decided to go with bermuda instead of the turffalo grass. They levelled things up last week and we have had three inches of rain since then and the dogs have dug in the new dirt looking for a cool spot.
