  • How to make your garden grow!
    The secret to making your flowering trees, shrubs, annuals, and perennials bloom more is in the numbers. All fertilizers have analysis numbers on the package. These numbers represent the percentage of each chemical the fertilizer contains.

    For example, 12-12-12 is a typical garden fertilizer that would contain 12% nitrogen, 12% phosphorus, and 12% potassium.
  • What’s so special about a sphagetti garden.
    One of the delightful pleasures of life are herbs. Besides adding beauty to your garden they make foods taste better and provide a pleasant scent to the air we breathe.

    composts, vermicompost is less variable and much more
    stable.

Perennial plants bloom at different times during the growing season and delight you with variety in color and size from earliest spring to late autumn.
