Hortsense is a collection of fact sheets designed to aid home gardeners but unfortunately is not an all-inclusive resource.
- If you are a home gardener, contact a WSU Master Garden Program Answer/Plant Clinic near you or complete the Pestsense Fact Sheet Request form (found under question 2)
We welcome your input. Our goal is continuous improvement of Hortsense through the addition of new information and are actively developing the process to include new peer reviewed fact sheets. You may speak with your county WSU Extension Master Gardener coordinator about the best way to submit ideas or request new fact sheets by completing this form.

It is important to use the most up-to-date version of our fact sheets. Each fact sheet viewed online contains a revision date that should be compared to printed versions. If you have a large number of fact sheets, you are encouraged to view the report of –
Recently Modified Fact Sheets.
We discourage retaining numerous printed copies of our fact sheets due to potential revision date issues.
