Planting & Care
Back to main Gardening Advice page
Here is practical planting and growing information intended to help you get
your new plants off to a good start. If you are an experienced gardener, you
might want to go directly to our Growing
Guides and search for cultural instructions for specific plants that we
sell.
When Your Order Arrives: How to handle
dormant plants, bareroot plants, actively growing plants. What to do if you
can't plant right away. Your plants are living, breathing things and can't remain
in the packing box for weeks, but we understand that life sometimes interferes
with our good intentions.
Soil Preparations: How and
why. If you can prepare the soil before your order arrives, so much the better.
Growing in Containers: Planting, feeding,
grooming annuals in containers. Growing standards.
Planting: How to handle bareroot and
potted plants, whether dormant or actively growing.

in South.
