February, 2010

Greetings,
 
Rain, rain, go a.......Bring it on!.   So far, we have fared well with only a few fallen trees and mud slides.  Perhaps the downpour will continue and we will get some relief from the drought.  As each storm approaches, we have a plan in place to be sure that each property is monitored.  Of course, seeing Palmer in his yellow puddle-jumpers makes any storm worth enduring.
Plant Health Care
February is the ideal time to develop a strategy for preventative pest control for plants, shrubs and trees.  Cleary Bros offers many organic and inorganic techniques that can be used to make good plants into Great Plants.
 
"An ounce of prevention, is worth a pound of cure."
Chris SartainChris Sartain is Cleary Bros.' Plant Health Care Advisor. Chris has been in the landscape industry for over 10 years and has a background in turf management and ornamental tree & shrub care. 
 
"Hindering pests from becoming established in turf, trees and shrubs, saves time and money in the long run. Plus, it keeps plants as healthy and aesthetically pleasing as possible," said Sartain. "An ounce of prevention, is worth a pound of cure."  Chris also likes kittens, cotton candy, and polkas.  He's a nut, really.

Making Mulch

creating organic mulch

At Cleary Bros., we manufacture our own mulch by recycling trimmings. This reduces the carbon footprint of commercial mulch and allows us to offer locally made organic mulch.
 
Organic mulch is made from living material, such as grass clippings, branches and leaves and has the following benefits:
  • as organic mulch decomposes, it produces nutrients that improve the soil and encourage earthworm activity
  • helps prevent weeds from growing
  • helps keep moisture in the ground and fights pests
  • improves the appearance of your garden
Happy February
Happy February! We look forward to working with all of our amazing customers in 2010.
