You can minimize this problem by proper ap plication of a good winter mulch around the plants. A mulch will prevent the soil from freezing too deep. Too early application of the mulch may result in as much dam- ge to the plants as no mulch at 11.

It may prevent the soil from reezing, thus allowing the plants sprout too early in the spring icfore the danger of killing irosts las passed. Wait until the soil has partially rozen before applying the mulch Use materials that do not tend to pack down tightly. Coarsely-ground clean straw, wood chips and peat moss work well. Six to eight inches will usually do the ob. If you already have a summer mulch around the plants, simply add to it for a winter one.

You can be sure your weedkiller application was successful if the weeds show only a slight curling or twisting at this time of the year. By spring, the weeds will have disappeared.

Those that haven't will usually succumb to spot treatments. Before planting trees, shrubs and evergreens, you'd better consider the ultimate growth of the plants. Too many plants are set too close to foundations of homes, and trees are planted under power lines and telephone wires. Before planting, look overhead. Give the plants plenty of room to grow naturally.

And don't forget what's underneath the soil either. You may be planting over water, gas, and sewer lines which may have to be retrieved some day.

The planting -hole for container- grown or balled-and-burlapped nursery stock should be about one to two feet larger than the size of the root ball.

Place the plant in the hole facing the desired direction, then fill the hole half full of prepared soil, carefully working it around the ball or roots as needed. A good soil mixture contains equal parts garden soil, coarse sand or gravel and peat moss or compost. Fill the remainder of the planting hole with water to help settle the soil and remove air pockets. When settled, add more soil, packing it firmly with your foot Set plants at the same level or slightly deeper than when grown in the nursery. But avoid deep planting.

Newly planted trees should be braced after planting with stakes set into the soil at least on two sides of the trunk several feet away from its base. Then tie the trunk loosely (just beneath the lowest branches) to the stakes with rope or wire strung through pieces of old plastic or rubber water hose to prevent scufting the bark. This type of bracing will prevent winds from uprooting the tree before it has a chance to develop sturdy roots in its new location.
