Leaves from broadleaf trees can be decomposed in the plastic bags in which they were placed after raking. Most leaves are raked while dry. The only ingredient necessary to add is water. Select an inconspicuous shaded location in the yard to store them. If left in full sunlight, many kinds of plastic bags will deteriorate and burst open thus the leaves will lose moisture and not decompose rapidly. Carry the bags of dry leaves to the storage location and than add enough water to set thoroughly. (It is more difficult to move the bags after water has been added). Shake the water around to ob tain good coverage, then pour off any excess before sealing the bags. Adding a cupful of fertilizer such as a 10-10-10 analysis before adding water will be beneficial, however, this is not a necessity for decomposition to occur. Broadleaf leaves such as oak, maple, and pecan, collected in the fall should be decomposed enough to work into the soil by April or Extension News Willie Featherstone Jr } County Extension Chairman May. Six inches of decomposed leaves will change the structure of heavy clay soils. They also can be beneficial in in creasing the water and nutrient holding capacities of sandy soils. Seasonal care of poinsettia Poinsettias will go on the market later this month. The length of time the plants re main attractive in the home is directly related to the care they receive and the environment in which they are placed. Improperly cared for, poinset tias may last but a few days; pro perly cared for, they may last weeks or even months. Plants should be placed in well lighted areas, usually the higher the light intensity the better. Sunny windows are good loca tions. Optimal day time temperatures range from 70-75 degrees F., with optimal night temperatures of 55-65 degrees. Droopy foilage may occur when plants have been in a dark cool place for more than 24 hours. Plants will usually revive when placed in light and warmer temperatures. Proper watering is extremely im portant. Plants should be watered when the soil is dry to the touch. Sufficient water should be ap plied to thoroughly wet the entire soil volume. The amount of water needed and the watering frequency will vary with the size of the plant, con tainer, and environmental condi tions. Poinsettia pots are often wrap ped in foil or placed in water tight containers to protect furniture. It is important that excess which accumulates be discarded. Poinsettias are actually grown for their colorful bracts, and not the true flowers which are the tiny yellow structures in the bract centers. The flowers usually mature and fall off in 2 to 4 weeks, but the bracts may remain colorful for several months if given proper care.
