Fast Fertilizer Fixes

Like Goldilocks—we want our soil to be just right

Often we turn to commercial fertilizer when we feel a bed is lacking in size, color, or bloom. As a matter of fact, a few of these quick fix scenarios played out in our display beds this year. When the time comes, it’s important to remember that overfeeding can introduce problems as much as underfeeding does.

Pansies and Violas are key plants to start the early spring season. They plant quickly, they handle the cold March and April weather very well, and they bulk up fast as soon as a hint of warm weather appears. 

Pansies and Violas kick off spring

Make sure you have the colors you need for spring plantings—get your orders for Pansies and Violas in this week. We are placing our final orders for seedlings now. Once we do so, pickings for custom orders get pretty thin and depend on the general availability of speculation crops.

For those who are getting a jump on the spring season, the deadline for our Spring Early Order Discount is November 30th. Our Early Order Discount is only available on early orders for main spring material. This does not apply to Early Spring Early Orders.

Orders submitted on or before November 30th for spring material only are eligible for the discount. We recommend placing your Early Order for spring material to ensure you meet your needs. There are four ways to place your order: call the office, fax, email, or use the Early Order screen on our website.
