The fields are calling and we’ve got one week left in our Spring ‘26 season❣️❣️
What you’ve all been asking for is here…..the 12” monster Proven Winner baskets and 14” PW combination pots are on blowout prices. There aren’t many 14” combo planters left so stop by this weekend if you want summering color at a huge discount!!
The flat sale is still going and there is a great selection of all vegetables and annuals.
The 4 1/2” sale is still going also.
Stop by and get your choice of what’s remaining…..when it’s gone, that’s it 😊!!

Couple more hot days on tap 🥵😎. Moisten the soil thoroughly. Give them a good, low pressure shot of water. Let that soak in and repeat 2-3 more times. 😊

🌸 HOW TO WATER HANGING BASKETS LIKE A PRO 🌸

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

💧 WATER IN THE MORNING

• Water early in the day whenever possible
• Recheck later only if the soil feels dry
• Avoid doing your main watering at night

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

💧 WATER SLOW & LOW

• Water slowly and evenly
• Give the soil time to absorb moisture
• Repeat until the basket is fully soaked

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

💧 WATER THE SOIL — NOT THE FLOWERS

• Aim the water underneath the plant canopy
• A watering wand without the nozzle works best

🚫 Avoid soaking blooms and buds
Can damage flowers and shorten bloom life

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

☀️ DURING 90°+ HEAT

• Check the soil before watering again
• Plants can look wilted even when properly hydrated

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🌬️ WINDY DAYS DRY BASKETS FAST

• Wind pulls moisture out quickly
• Most baskets bounce back fast once watered

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🌱 FEED WEEKLY FOR BEST RESULTS

• Never fertilize stressed or wilted plants
• Water thoroughly first
• Feed the following morning

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🔥 JULY & AUGUST TIPS

• Use lighter fertilizer doses more often
• Consistent feeding works better during extreme heat

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🧪 BEST FERTILIZER OPTIONS

• Water-soluble fertilizers
• Hose-end feeding systems
• Always mix fertilizer completely before applying

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🚫 AVOID GRANULAR FERTILIZER IN HOT WEATHER

Granular fertilizers can burn plants during summer heat

Thank you to everyone who came out for the first couple days of the sale❣️❣️ Flats, flats, flats…..I guess you had a few open spaces to fill 😊.
Sale doesn’t mean junk, as we heard quite a few taking about how nice the plants were.
We still feed everything
We still pinch and deadhead
We still organize and move everything.
Come take advantage of our over-seeding and planting. There’s still a decent selection of 4 1/2” annuals and herbs, flatted annuals and a fantastic vegetable selection❣️❣️
