Planter Palooza!

The temperatures are rising...Spring is in the air...

It must be Planter Palooza time!!

Planting Tips!

1. Good Drainage: Make sure your pots have adequate drainage so the roots of your pots do not drown.

2. Good Soil: Choose a potting soil from your local garden shoppe that contains time release fertilizer and moisture retaining crystals. These soils are free of weed seeds and are rich in nutrients. They also reduce maintenance for you.

3. Good Light: Make sure you choose a plant that will respond favorably to the amount of sunlight it will receive in that spot. If you are unsure, ask at your garden center. They are full of knowledge!!
