Prepare to Enjoy the Holiday!

The start of the long July 4th weekend is less is only one week away! As you prepared to spend more leisure time outside, take a look at around your garden: perhaps your mixed containers need a little more color, or maybe something that you planted in May isn’t looking as fresh as when it was first planted.  Adding fresh annuals to an empty spot in your flower garden or mixed container is quick and easy, and it provides immediate gratification!

Hanging baskets are an instant solution to add color to your patio or porch.  Your local garden center has beautiful hanging baskets ready for you to take home today! Hanging baskets also make a wonderful hostess gift!

Did you know that many garden centers provide the service of planting your container for you? Just take your favorite container into the garden center, or better yet purchase a beautiful new container while you are there, select your plants, and then let the experts at the garden center arrange and plant the container for you!  They will even load it into your vehicle! You can get much easier than this!
