Spring bedding plants ants plants are those that make their display from early to late spring; summer bedding plants ants plants are those that are at their peak from early summer to early fall.
Beds can be filled with a number of plants of differing habits and, usually, mixed colors. Carpeting plants are used as a base planting, with taller plants employed to produce a second or third tier of flowers.Locate ant hill. With a small spade, dig straight down into hill. This cuts through passages; ants become excited, come tumbling out, and fall into pit. Have ready a straight-sided, large-mouthed jar (square-shaped one best). Place jar in pit and fill in any empty space around it with dirt. Ants now tumble into jar. If colony is healthy, ants may be collected in a few minutes; if weak, must visit second nest. Take no more ants than pets will eat in 2 days; ants survive for short time only when piled on top of each other in close quarters and kept without food.
