Plant Trees, Shrubs, & Perennials. Enhance your garden with new additions and replacement plants.
Deadhead early flowering bulbs—leave foliage until it yellows.
Divide and transplant summer and fall flowering perennials. Spring flowering perennials can be divided after they flower.
Weed to keep your gardens looking tidy for your summer events. Apply a pre-emergent herbicide such as Preen to prevent weeds throughout the year. These products work as a barrier to prevent germination. If you break the barrier by turning the soil or planting in the area, you must re-apply the pre-emergent. Read and follow all label instructions.
Mulch with a 2-3” layer of organic mulch in ornamental beds. It prevents weeds, retains moisture and regulates soil temperatures throughout the year. Keep the mulch 1-2” away from the base of all of your plants.
Plant Annuals & Vegetables after the danger of frost has passed. Usually after May 15.
Fertilize your annuals and containers. Use a combination of Miracle-Gro & a slow release fertilizer such as Osmocote.
Beautify your landscape with annual filled containers! Containers should be filled with a soilless mix and must have drainage holes.
