Bunny Problems Multiplying? Send'em packing with organic Rabbit Repellent. We've tried it here at the nursery & it works great!

Weekly Gardening Tip:
Get that Nut Sedge (nut grass) under control with Sedgehammer & Herbicide Helper spreader sticker). The spreader sticker is necessary to help the herbicide adhere to the weed so that it can do it's work.

GreenTip:
Use an old egg carton for starting seeds (a great project for kids!). Make sure to puncture a drain hole in the bottom of each cell. If the carton is made from pressed paper, it can be planted in the ground, where it will biodegrade. If it is styrofoam, then please recycle it appropriately.

Add color to your landscape

: Mix a few annuals in with perennial plants to add color to your landscape. I added Hybrid vinca Cobra in mixed colors, Angelonia and perennial Gaillardia blanket flower 'Oranges and Lemons" and lisianthus that are very heat tolerant to the perennial hill in my back yard. I already had heat tolerant blue aster, verbena, salvia farnesiana, tall lisianthus and a brown Gaillardia that are perennial. I also am trying to see how long geraniums and lobelia will last in the summer. The area gets afternoon shade. This is a way to enjoy color year around at a budget price. I like to pick flowers and the lisianthus and gaillardias are great picked and last very well.
