Weekly Gardening & Green Tip:
Plant drought tolerant trees & shrubs now so their roots can become well established over the fall. Low water use plants will use even less water over the winter! Getting plants established over the fall & winter will help them be better able to survive the following summer.Note: Before attempting to diagnose or treat any problem, be sure to either bring in a sample (or email us a photo) for verification with our Garden Pros. Also, please remember that we can't see it over the phone!

Green Tip:
Plant a tree to shade your windows & cut down on your air conditioning costs!

Feature Tree: Chinese Pistache (Pistacia chinensis)

A dense shade tree, native to China & the Phillipines. It grows at a moderate rate to 40' x 35'. There are both male & female trees. The leaves change color in the fall to a brilliant red-orange, before dropping for the winter.
Available in 15G, 24" & 36" Box


Feature Plant: Asparagus Fern

(Asparagus sprengerii [L] & meyeri [R])

~

A native of South Africa is not really a fern at all. Even though it may appear fern-like to the inexperienced eye, it has flowers and berries, so is clearly a highly modified angiosperm. The needle-like leaves are actually short branches called cladodes. The true leaves are initially green, but remain on the plant as inconspicuous dry scales. The plant will reach from 2 ' to 4 ' tall. It prefers full sun to part shade. The A. meyeri does better in shade. Taller stems will weep and make the plant a good basket subject. Available in 1G & 5G.

Feature Plant: Mexican Petunia (Ruellia spp.)
Native to Mexico & the southwestern US, this evergreen shrub averages about 3' x 3', except for the 'Katie' variety which is a dwarf (1' x 2'). It can spread through seed & by the stems bending to touch & root into the ground. The flowers are usually purple, but can be pink or white. It's a moderate water user & can tolerate full sun to part shade. On our Sale! Available in 1G & 5G.
