Trees and Shrubs
Our trees and shrubs around the nursery have been offering quite a show! Eastern Red Buds and Dogwoods are beautiful right now. We have a very graceful Deodar Cedar called 'Feelin' Blue'. Our Azaleas are showing their spring blooms as well as our Encore Azaleas. Pieris and Eleanor Tabor Indian Hawthornes look great right now.
Fertilize
As new growth emerges from your perennials, shrubs, and trees, you can fertilize them. We have a large selection of fertilizers to choose from.
Daniels: 10-4-3 Quite possibly our favorite fertilizer. This is a liquid fertilizer that can be used on just about anything. Houseplants, annuals, perennials, shrubs and trees. In the short time that we have carried this product we have heard great feedback from our customers. You will want to give this eco-friendly fertilizer a try.
Osmocote: 19-6-12 This a slow release granular fertilizer that can be used on houseplants, annuals, perennials and shrubs. Osmocote is very easy to apply and lasts up to 4 months.
Fertilome Bedding Plant Food: 7-22-8 A granular fertilizer that is great on annuals and perennials. This is a great fertilizer to liven up your pansies, perennials and snaps.
Miracle Gro Tomato: 18-18-21 This is a water soluble fertilizer that can be applied to all vegetables.
Milorganite: 6-2-0 This is an organic slow release nitrogen fertilizer that is non-burning and therefore goof proof. It can be used on lawns, trees, shrubs, annuals and perennials. Tests have shown that Milorganite can also deter deer.

***Don't forget to enrich your soil as well. Fertilizer alone will have a hard time working if you don't have good soil. Enrich and enliven your soil by top dressing with compost such as Mushroom Compost -or you can make your own 'Compost Tea' and water your beds with it.
