Question: | "Please advise me whether or not creeping bent stolons could be successfully planted during the winter months. My plan would be this: Catch the soil in a moist condition after a light thaw, broadcast the stolons very thickly over the surface, and press them firmly into the ground as they are planted. I would follow this with a topdressing during a spell of freezing. Would not this method prove satisfactory if moisture conditions were properly taken care of?" |

Answer/Response: | "We should hestitate to plant stolons during the winter in your climate, as during the very cold weather they would be pretty apt to die. We believe you could safely plant them up to the end of November, but after that the chances are they would die. Your best plan would probably be to put them on the prepared ground just as early as you possibly can in the spring. That is not as good as late summer planting, but we believe you could look forward to success." |
