Have a Cornus Hesseyii that is wilting quite a bit–I just bought it 2 days ago. Mostly, it’s in shade with some sun in the afternoon. I’ve watered it a few times since planting but don’t know why it’s wilting.
When is the best time to prune my honeysuckle butterfly bush?
We purchased some shrub roses and did not have very good luck with them last year. There were more sticks than leaves or flowers. Do you have any tips on how to get them to come back strong this year? Would it be beneficial to cut them all the way down and start again?
What is the proper way to cut roses?
I have two yucca plants that look really “yucky”. This is the fourth year that I have had them and they have become so big. The leaves (or stems) have brownish or rust colored areas on them and some are a yellowish green and brown. Some of the leaves pull off easily and I have removed them but the other ones don’t pull off easily. I’m wondering if I can cut this way back or how I remove all the bad leaves, which is most of them. They have become so long that they are covering up some of my other plants. Am I doing something wrong that the leaves are looking like this? Last year they both produced their first flower. What do I do with the big, thick stalk that is left? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I’m about to pull them up out of the ground! Thanks!
Am I supposed to deadhead Salvia, Echinacea, Rudbeckia, and Bee Balm? Is there a rule of thumb for deadheading flowering perennials?
We hired Pahl’s Landscaping to design and plant new shrubs and perennials in the front and sides of our house. Pretty much all have survived the winter, but I’m wondering if the Graziella Maiden Miscanthus Grasses are really slow to emerge. They all (5 plants) still have a straw color. There is no green or new growth emerging. When should I see new green growth? We cut them back to about 8 inches earlier this spring. Thanks.
ARE THERE ANY GROUND COVER PLANTS THAT WOULD THRIVE IN A HEAVY SHADED AREA (UNDER PINE TREES, FOR EXAMPLE)?
I’m trying to “kill off” my “lilies of the valley” to start a vegetable garden, but nothing seems to work. Any suggestions? Thank you very much!
I have a couple of purple echinacea plants we would like to relocate. Is it too late to transplant yet??? When is the best time for transplanting?
My hostas all full of little holes. I’ve tried spraying them for bugs, but nothing seems to work. Some varieties are affected more than others. Thanks for any help you can offer.
We have recently moved into a 4-yr old home in Farmington. Some of the trees and shrubs are dead and need replacement. Also, the previous owner did not seem to have a plan when planting shrubs and trees. We would like to look at what would be a good plan for our yard. We are interested in doing most of the work ourselves, but we would like expert advice on what is the best thing to do for our yard (as well as to tell us what we currently have in our yard). Do you have anyone at the nursery that does this? Or do you have a recommendation?
