Here's your local news at a glance for Monday, the 10th of November.
Good morning, Tyler.
🌲 Environment
Smith County Master Gardeners say that garden mums are perennials that come in many colors and bloom more than once each year.
They urged gardeners to care for them by cutting off dead parts—helping the plants bloom again in future seasons.
Pansies and violas brighten local gardens in East Texas from October through April—flowers that gardeners plant six inches apart in well-drained, organically enriched soil—to add color during the cooler months.
Greg Grant, a Tyler horticulturist with Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service, advises gardeners to water deeply and use slow-release fertilizer for steady winter blooms.
🏛️ Government
TxDOT is urging Texans to drive safely and use (#EndTheStreakTX) on social media as part of its End the Streak campaign.
The agency says the effort aims to reduce crashes and save lives.
