Annuals and Perennials

Geraniums, impatiens, petunias, vinca, salvia, daylilies, astilbe, rudbeckia, yarrow and foxglove are all in bloom.

Window boxes, hanging baskets and planters need to be watered and fertilized more frequently than plants growing in the ground. Soil Moist is a water-grabbing polymer that can reduce the frequency of watering.

Control slugs and snails on hosta and other plants with Sluggo, an organic, pet friendly product.

Leggy perennials such as sedum, summer phlox, amsonia and joepye can be trimmed now to keep them dense and compact. This will help prevent them from flopping over when the flower later this summer.

Hibiscus, jasmine, oleander and mandevilla are just some of the flowering tropical plants you can add to your deck, patio or balcony.

Lacebugs and spider mites can be controlled with Bayer Advanced 3-in-1 Insect, Disease and Mite Control.
