We continually look for new varieties of high quality plants that will inspire
home gardeners. We have a full selection of colorful plants, shrubs, trees,
grasses, provided by a number of quality vendors like Proven Winners, Weeks
Roses, and Langeveld Bulbs.
Listed below are some of the more popular varieties of plants that we typically
stock during the season. However, due to various reasons, we may not have
every variety listed at all times. Contact our highly trained staff if you
are looking for a special plant and for the care and proper planting of the
plant.

Roses – Best time to Plant! Now, Today,
Tomorrow.
Our potted Weeks and David Austin rootstock Roses are actually grown
in 3 gallon pots. Our nursery offers over one thousand varieties of
a unique selection of Specialty Roses, Hybrid Tea Roses, Floribundas,
Grandifloras,
Heirloom Roses, Climbing Roses, Miniature Roses, Own Root Roses and
Tree Roses. Therefore, it's a simple matter to plant the rose of
your choice.
Since they are never "bare root" any day is the best day
to plant!
WHERE TO PLANT:
For the best results, bigger plants and more blooms,
plant roses where they will get at least six hours of sunlight per day.
Plant roses at least 4' apart to allow proper air flow.
Ingredients for planting: The following ingredients are for one rose
bush.
1. Mix well together one cubic ft. of organic compost, one cubic ft.
of potted topsoil, one cubic ft. of native soil (your existing soil)
This is important!, one cup of bone meal, and ¼ cup of super
phosphate.
HOW TO PLANT:
1. Water rose thoroughly, with
Root Stimulator in its pot, before planting (again one week later)
2. Dig a hole approximately 12" deep and 24" wide
(don't cheat), fill hole approximately 1/2 full with mixed soil.
3. Place one hand across the top of the pot and turn
the rose upside down and place the other hand on the bottom of the
pot and gently remove rose.
4. Place rose in center of hole and make sure soil
in pot is level with existing grade. (Never Cover Stem and Graft.)
5. Place your mixed soil around the rose until the
hole is filled.
6. Water slowly and make sure all of the air is out
of the hole. You may need to add more soil after watering.
7. Now is a good time to stake your rose by using
a 3/4 rebar approximately 4' long.
8. Carefully tie your rose with a soft cloth or plastic
garden tie. Do not use anything that will cut into the rose cane. |
FERTILIZING YOUR ROSES:
1. You can start feeding your
rose three weeks after planting. Purchase a quality rose food like
Rosepride from our garden shop to enhance blooming. Supplements such
as Root Stimulator and Super Thrive should be used twice a year to
insure root growth for your rose.
2. Roses need to be sprayed every 7 days to help prevent
diseases (black spot) and insects. Rotating between a combination of
two or more fungicides and insecticides will provide better control.
We recommend for Diseases: Ortho Brand Chemicals, Scott, Halt, Banner,
Rosepride, Dithane M-45, Maneb. We feel that the combination of 1 insecticide
and 2 fungicides give us the best results. Call or visit Susan and
her staff for your particular situation.
3. If you have a bad case of Black Spot or Mildew,
You should spray every 3 days until the problem is under control. You
should pick off all the leaves with Black Spot and remove them from
your rose garden. |
KEEP YOUR ROSES HEALTHY
Roses under stress will tend to have more diseases
and fungus. Stress can be caused from: 1. Not enough food 2. Not enough
water 3. Too much water. 4. pH out of balance 5. Transplant shock.
Call us if there is a problem!

Bulbs - Autumn is for Planting!
Bulbs that are planted in autumn, such as tulip, narcissi (daffodils),
crocus and hyacinths will flower from February through June. Bring continuous
color to your garden next spring by planting some bulbs this autumn!
Planting bulbs allows you to become an instant garden artist. Nothing
else is as easy to plant and offers you the abundance of colors and shapes
that bulbs do. Crocuses signify the end of winter and there are few things
that are as closely associated with the arrival of springtime as tulips
and daffodils. Summer flowering bulbs are essential to filling out your
home landscape and even provide color into the fall season. We hope that
our web site (and this section in particular) becomes a useful tool for
you and makes your home gardening more rewarding.
-
Selecting Your Bulbs -
While deciding on your colour preferences and variety preferences,
there are a few other things to consider, such as:
bloom time, spacing, plant height and light requirements.
Along with planting instructions, you will find all of this information
readily available on the packaging.
-
General Planting Guidelines -
The following section provides general planting guidelines for
your spring blooming bulbs.
For details on
a particular variety, check the planting instructions on the packaging.
-
When to Plant - Spring blooming
bulbs must go in the ground before the ground freezes and while
bulbs are still firm and without prominent
sprouts.
-
Location - In general, bulbs should
be planted in a sunny location. Crocus Daffodils and Hyacinths
will also flower in partial shade.
-
Soil - Bulbs can be planted in
any type of soil as long as it is well drained.
-
Depth and Spacing – The average depth to plant
bulbs is about 6 inches below the soil, but can range
from 4 inches to 8 inches depending on the bulb. Refer to the
packaging to learn the proper planting
distance and depth for a particular variety. If you can't find
this information for the particular variety as a rule of thumb
you should make the hole as deep as 3 times the size of the bulb.
