No flower is more iconic of autumn than the chrysanthemum! These beautiful mounding perennials are ideal for fall flowerbeds, pots, and borders. Just when other flowers fade, mums come into their glory with stunning autumn colors and long-lasting blooms.
Spring flowering bulbs are a must for every garden, providing cheerful early-season color when most needed. Daffodils offer ease of care, diverse flower colors and shapes, pest resistance, and carefree ability to return year after year with little effort.
Looking to add extra appeal to the fall and winter landscape? Try ornamental cabbage and kale! These cold-tolerant annuals improve after frost, bringing out intense colors in their frilly, variegated foliage – perfect for autumn containers and borders.
Prepare for winter by mulching, protecting plants, and tending to houseplants. Fertilize lawns and trees, prune dead branches, and start early spring crops under lights.
The holiday season is here, and with it comes the joyous tradition of decorating our homes with festive wreaths, garlands, roping, and arrangements.
Waxed amaryllis is a beautiful, unique, and easy-care holiday plant, and you can enjoy it for weeks after the holiday season.
Although the blooms of summer are a distant memory and the splendor of fall is neatly raked into the compost pile, don’t think your yard has to be dreary from now until spring. Background planting, berries, bark and even blooms are the secrets of a colorful and interesting winter landscape.
Poinsettias and chrysanthemums go together like, well, holidays and happiness! If you’ve been plunking down your poinsettias all by themselves, it’s time to jazz up your arrangements and give them some decorating companionship.
Back in the early ages of gardening, someone realized covering a plant could protect it from frost and wind chill, preserving blooms and protecting foliage from the ravages of ice crystals and dropping temperatures.
One of our sweetest holiday traditions is kissing under the mistletoe, but how much do we really know about this custom or, for that matter, the plant itself?
