Happy Native Gardening
Garden Time with Doug
There is some confusion when determining if, or how, a plant is considered “native.” In my opinion, the best definition for a “native” comes from the Virginia Native Plant Society:  
“Native plants are those that were growing here when the settlers first arrived and have adapted to the environmental conditions of this region over a long period of time. This gives them an advantage over introduced species by being resistant to drought, insects, and diseases and are ideal for growing in a natural garden.” Learn more about Native Plants

Please Donate
We will continue to take donations to support the Alzheimer’s Association through June 21st, so please help us to hit our goal of $25,000.  We would also like to recommend the book ," Remembering for Both of Us" by Charlotte Wood, which gives great insight in dealing with this disease.  Learn more

Bagged Mulch or Bulk Mulch?
Which one is right for me?
Simply put, the decision to buy bulk or bagged mulch depends on price vs. convenience!  In general, bulk mulch will cost a bit less.  For the extra little bit of money, you will pay for bags, you have something that is a little easier to work with.  Either way, we’re confident that you’ll be pleased with the product!  Learn more about your mulch options and check out our Mulch Calculator to determine how much mulch you'll need for your job.  

Peonies
The perennial Peony bears attractive glossy green foliage that typically grows to about 3’ in height with a similar spread, but their popularity is due mainly to their flowers. The striking peony flowers are highly fragrant with massive double blooms usually pink, red or white. Peony plants bloom in late spring or early summer.  Read more about Peonies

Encore Azaleas
People who adore spring-blooming azaleas can now enjoy an explosion of colors season after season with the Encore Azalea. Each of the many Encore varieties begins their performance with the spring flowering season. Once this “first act” of blooming concludes, new shoots begin to grow and set new buds. The Encore Azalea’s “second act” opens when these buds begin blooming into full color during the summer. This unique bloom season continues through the fall, with the curtain dropping with the onset of colder weather. This is followed by the show beginning anew in the spring. Learn more about Encore Azaleas

Caladiums
Bonnie's Garden
I have a raised bed at the front of my yard, just in front of a large maple tree. I used to grow impatiens there.  After a few summers dealing with wilted impatiens, I decided there had to be a better choice. I tried Caladiums instead. Wow! Why hadn’t I tried them before? The colors were gorgeous and they not only thrived in that dry shady bed but I only had to water them once or twice a week—not twice a day.  Read more about Caladiums

Mulching Soon?
Preen season-long weed control
Preen garden weed preventer stops weeds when they're seeds and prevents them from germinating in flower and vegetable gardens, in ground covers and around trees and shrubs.  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
