| Perennials Are Arriving! Perennials are a fantastic addition to any garden. Not only do they bloom year after year from one single planting, but with the right choices and a bit of gardening know-how, you can plant perennials that bloom all throughout the season, giving you consistent color each year without having to supplement with annual plantings. These perennials are mid to late-spring bloomers that will provide color throughout May and into June and July, providing continuous color from one season to the next. See our list of May blooming sun and shade perennials | |

Mulching Soon? Preen season-long weed control

By preventing new weeds from sprouting, you eliminate the need for difficult and time-consuming hand-weeding. Without weeds, your valuable plants can grow larger and stronger. Early spring is the optimal time to apply Preen. One application blocks weeds for up to 3 months so your beds will stay neat and weed-free all season long! Why pull or kill weeds when you can prevent weeds with Preen? Here's a short video on getting the jump on weeds | |

| My Top 5 Favorite Vegetables Bonnie's Garden I try to plant at least one new thing every year—both in my flower and my veggie/herb garden. Over the past few years, I’ve come up with a list of my favorite vegetables so far. As I continue to try new things, this list is definitely subject to change. Most of my favorite vegetables are not necessarily the “standard” varieties. Some of them are a little less than traditional and you may well like another variety better. It’s really all about “customizing” your garden to your tastes. Just in case you’re interested, here are some of my favorites | |

| Corn Gluten Weed Preventer It's Organic! Don’t worry, it’s not the food ingredient everyone’s trying to avoid! In this case, “Gluten Free” is NOT the goal! Corn Gluten is an all-natural by-product of the production of corn starch. It prevents the establishment of weeds and supplies a source of organic nitrogen. Nitrogen promotes green growth in lawns and the nitrogen in corn gluten is slow released and long-lasting. Corn gluten prevents the roots of seedling weeds from developing. Without root formation, the weed dies from a lack of water since roots deliver water to the rest of the weed. Meadows Farms recommends Espoma Organic Weed Preventer plus Lawn Food.

Despite the benefits of pruning, a little knowledge does go a long way. Learn more about pruning | |
