Solterra Supports The Galloway School

Greetings!
Atlanta's rainy winter has transitioned to a spectacular spring. Solterra is busy installing annual beds for summer color, trimming, planting, and prepping to make the most of this season's moderate temperatures and rapid growth.
We've also been gaining exposure through our featured garden at the Southeastern Flower Show and providing landscaping for the See-Thru House at the Atlanta Home Show.
This Saturday, Solterra is leading the landscaping project at the Ronald McDonald House as part of A Better Sandy Springs Day.
As always, we appreciate your support of Solterra Landscape and your confidence in us.
Peter and Dixie Speck

Plant of the Month
Kaleidoscope Abelia
This small shrub is great for adding a pop of color and brightness to any landscape, along with continued winter interest. Once established (2-3 years following installation), becomes drought tolerant. Find out more about this shrub and how to best care for it.

Maintenance Focus
Mow, edge, trim, and prep
| This property could use some Solterra TLC! |
Every living thing outdoors is growing rapidly this month. All lawn types are being mowed and edged every week, weeds are growing fast with new ones popping up every day, and all shrubs are putting a lot of growth out requiring some pruning to be done every week. Insects are already active; therefore plant health care programs are focusing on identifying any issues and applying appropriate treatments.
Irrigation systems get turned on this month.
Have your irrigation system analyzed for water-saving efficiency. Call or email us to set an appointment.
