It's Time To Garden
It’s not too late to put color or veggies in your yard. The weather is expected to be in the 70’s the next 10 days which is perfect for rapid growth of your new starts.
We would recommend cucumbers
, melons, sunflowers, early corn, pumpkins and gourds. These are fun to watch and grow fast. Kids love to participate in the gardening process and we find these are among their favorites. If you have questions about specific varieties, we are always happy to answer your questions.
For summer color look to marigolds and geraniums. The hanging baskets are in full bloom and beautiful. If fed well, they will bloom all summer and really make a big impact in your yard.
