State Fair time.

Hi. We will be working at the State Fair this year at the MNLA area outside the Hort building this coming Saturday from Noon to 3:00pm. Come check it out.
Greetings from the Nursery. I am sure all are enjoying the wonderful summer weather. Looking around here I see plenty of color. The mums are in bloom. The dwarf sunflowers are blooming as are other flowers in the greenhouse.
Outside we have a sale on perennials that gives you a great deal on them at 50% off. Now is a great time to plant perennials with the time to set roots for fall and become happy in your yard. Soon we will have bare root Peony's with the offer to you to purchase bare root verses potted for a cost affective save. Trees and shrubs are now 30% off. A shipment of some more plants are arriving this week. Hydrangeas and Barberries. Standard Euonymus and others to brighten your yard. Stop on in and check them out.
No pruning or fertilizing of perennials, shrubs, or trees is recommended til it freezes. Fertilizing of annuals is a giving at this time of year. Be careful not to fertilize any plant when it is dry for the change of burning the roots is very high when one does that. Water well and water deeply.
Until next time. Plant a tree save the air.

Snow and Frost warnings!!!!!!

Yes you read it correctly, this Mothers Day will be nice but tonight and Saturday (the days leading up to Sunday will NOT). As today progresses you will need to be searching for a blanket or tarp or two to cover your tender plants with. If possible bring them into your home or garage for the next 2 days. Or if you'd like stop in and get a newer product call FreezePruf. Made by liquid fence it helps protect your plants from Frost, it can be put on everything from Ornamental, Fruits, and Vegetables Plants. Check it out.
As for Mothers Day we are full of colorful flowering pots, hanging baskets and all sorts of shapes and colors. We also have flowering Hydrangeas and Hybrid Roses in Bloom too. Herbs and vegetables in stock too.
