Managing Garden Pests Wisely
Citrus County Utilities’ Florida-Friendly Landscaping™ Program is offering a free
gardening workshop on Tuesday, July 12, 2022, from 2:00-3:30pm. Correctly identifying the cause of
plant damage is always the first step to controlling an infestation. Inspection, scouting,
identification, selecting the least harmful control, and accurate application are important pest
management practices.
Right Plant, Right Place
Citrus County Utilities Florida-Friendly Landscaping™ Program is offering a free
gardening workshop on Tuesday, July 26, 2022, from 2:00-3:30 pm. Once established, the right plant
is often sustainable without additional supplemental watering. Choosing appropriate plant
materials, planting them correctly, and managing them wisely ensures a garden’s success.

appropriate nutrients, recognizing deficiencies or symptoms of decline, and providing an
appropriate control is essential when caring for your palm.
