Vegetable gardeners, Are you practicing
patience?
Despite the last weeks of warm weather it is NOT time to plant #tomatoes, #peppers, #cucumbers, squashes,
bean or corn, etc. Well, unless you are ready to baby them like some of our
experienced, impatient customers. (You know who you are. Debbie,
lol)
Season Extenders, AKA – Wall O’
Water can be used over single plants to keep them warm night & day.
Come to the Garden Shoppe and see Granny’s Ace tomato plant.
Now is the time to prep your garden. The above warm weather plants can be planted between May 1 and
June 1, depending on where you live.
Work up the soil, get your
containers ready, add fertilizer & #compost – there are several ways so
choose what works for you.
Our annual sale on Harvest Supreme (which contains 15% chicken manure)
will start in about a week. As soon as our shipment arrives it will be buy
3, get one free. Cost is $8.99 a bag so
the sale makes it $6.75 a
bag. Come & get it, Wayne.
If you just can’t wait, plant #herbs (but not
basil), onions, peas, potatoes, lettuce, broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, leafy
greens, strawberries and other fruiting plants.

ornamental plants, annuals & perennials. We have everything from Alyssum to
Zinnia and in between.

Victoria lobelia – Fuchsias – Hyssop - Salvia and more.
And the #bees love anything with

Want to attract & feed beneficial insects?
Plant some alyssum among the lettuce and all
around.
