Butterfly Gardening - Butterflies have become the highlight of the garden – they are environmental
superstars and are often featured in most horticultural
magazines.
Azalea & Rhododendron Care - Leave plant ball slightly above ground level. Barely cover top
of plant ball with soil. You will never lose a plant by shallow
planting. Plant loss is assured if planted too deep.
Blooming Hydrangeas - By and large, hydrangeas are relatively easy to grow
and tricks and chants aren't necessary to make them flower. Nonetheless, one
of the questions we're asked most frequently has to do with getting "those
darn hydrangeas" to bloom.
Clematis Care - Clematis are truly the Queen of Garden Vines. The
spectacular blooms take on so many uses in the garden,
from climbing the usual fences, mailboxes and
lamp posts, to standing alone on a teepee or pergola.
Deer Resistant Plants - In a very bad winter deer will eat almost anything, but it is imperative
not to forget that they “munch” throughout the entire year.
To be able to landscape your yard without a worry, one needs to make
those pesky deer a problem of the past.
Planting Groundcovers - Time of planting is best in spring, late summer or
early fall. Soil preparation is very important for the success of your
groundcover.
Plants for Under A Black Walnut - Planting near a black walnut tree (Juglans nigra) requires special precautions. The root bark of the tree gives
off a toxin which, when contacted by roots of other plants, may be extremely harmful.
Rose Care - Growing roses is one of the great joys of gardening. Roses
will bring beauty to your home and garden for many years.
One of the truly unique characteristics of roses is that they
are amazingly versatile. There are roses for almost any
landscape application.
