LandscaExperts Tip of the Week, Feb. 25

Closely-set Bamboo Stakes foil deer

Plant 18 or 24 inch bamboo stakes 3-4 inches apart around the crowns of emerging perennials. Hungry deer will not put their heads down through them. This is particularly effective protection for Asiatic and Oriental Lilies.

Maintaining Healthy Plants After Landscape Renovation

The LandscapExperts are the right team for maintenance! Start with follow-up care for plants that have just been moved or newly planted. The main reason for death of newly planted shrubs is the lack of irrigation during the first year after planing. Crabapple knows that watering-in at planting time and then never again is simply won't succeed.

At least 1 inch of rain per week per caliper inch is recommended, and if no rains fall, we can set up a drip irrigation system or supplimental watering schedule now, to be ready for the active growing season.
