PLEASE NOTE: In the autumn of 1995, we hatched the idea for a free, local gardening publication. The following spring, we published the first issue of Michigan Gardener magazine. Advertisers, readers, and distribution sites embraced our vision. Thus began an exciting journey of helping our local gardening community grow and prosper.
After 27 years, nearly 200 issues published, and millions of copies printed, we have decided it is time to end the publication of our Print Magazine and E-Newsletter.
We will continue to update our Website with articles and enter current gardening events in our website Event Calendar. All the best wishes for 2024 and beyond.

After poppies are done blooming, what should I do with the dark brown heads – should they be cut off immediately, this fall, or not until next spring?
Once poppy flower petals have fallen, it is best to remove the seed head as soon as possible. Cut the flower stem as close to the base of the foliage as you can. Since the plant does not have to form seed, it can now spend its energy developing a larger, more vigorous plant for next spring.
