Winter 2012

Winter is by no means a time when gardeners flock to our garden center! Yet, we are here 6 days a week to help you with any gardening problems you may have. If your houseplants look sick, we can help to figure out the problem and hopefully save your plant. Winter can be a good time to re-pot those pot bound houseplants. We have the terracotta pots, glazed pottery and plastic pots that you will need to re-pot those plants. As odd as it may sound, people ask all the time “Do you have potting soil at this time of the year? “ Of course we do! We are your full service garden center.

Winter is the time of year when people think about feeding the wild birds that are desperate for food. We carry many different types of bird seed. We can help you to pick out the best mix of seed for the birds that live in your yard. We also carry many different types of bird feeders. We have suet feeders and suet cakes as well.

Winter can also bring lots of miserable weather. We have the snow shovels and roof rakes that you will eventually need to clean the snow off the driveway, walkways and roof. We have rock salt, ice melt and bags of sand. We also carry pet safe ice melt too.

January is the month when the new seed racks arrive. You can start many plants from seed and save the cost of buying plants in the spring. We are your local experts at teaching you how to grow flower and vegetable plants from seed.

Next time you are out and about, stop in to see the houseplants and all the other things that we have to help you with your case of “spring fever”.
