This winter, snow pack has pushed back our typical late winter/very early spring lawn and garden activities. Hopefully, by the time you receive this postcard, the majority of the white stuff will be gone. If you’re tired of being housebound and are readily, (somewhat impatiently) awaiting spring, now is the time to get planning! Warmer weather will soon be upon us, opening the door for weeds in lawns, gardens and landscapes to gain a foothold this spring if they are not addressed. We look forward to working alongside you to ensure success with lawns, landscapes and gardens. The bulleted topics below are worth consideration at this time.
- Japanese Stiltgrass Control – Take control of this grassy weed in lawns by applying Dimension without fertilizer NOW. Timing is critical for effective control, with the ideal window being from mid-February to late-March.
- Early Landscape Weed Control – Stay ahead of weeds in the landscape with Treflan. Treflan is a pre-emergent that eliminates new weeds before they start. Apply in February or early March to control cool season weeds.
- Amending Soil in Raised Garden Beds – Ensure your raised beds are ready to go before planting. Now is a great time to amend and/or top off raised garden beds. We have a variety of compost, peat and soil options. Stop in or call us for more information.
- Spring Planting – Whether you start your vegetables from seed or purchase finished plants, want to create new garden beds or refurbish existing ones or add trees and shrubs to the landscape, NOW is the time to start planning! We have the products and know how to help you achieve your goals.
