The average “frost free” weekend is quickly approaching! Prepare flower beds for summer annuals so they’re ready when you are! Add some Daddy Pete’s Cow Manure to the soil – it’s a terrific additive, affordable and always yields great results.daddy petes

lus, be sure to have Evergreen Soil Conditioner on hand for beautiful blooming results! Basically our soil conditioner is mulch ground up so fine that at the end of the season, it greatly improves the soil when it is tilled in. This way you don’t have to remove courser mulch when come next winter when your flowers are spent. Right now 2 cubic foot bags are only $4.50 each.  Use this once the summer annuals are tucked in to their beds, to help them survive the hot temps and dry conditions that summer brings!soil conditioner

Pro Tip: Use Pine Bark Soil Conditioner as a fine mulch covering in pots – it helps retain moisture and it gives potted plants a clean finished look!
