Waiting for Earl
Well we are patiently awaiting the imminent arrival of Hurricane Earl. We've gotten all buttoned up and are ready for anything. We'll probably get 1/2" of rain and 15 mph winds but that's okay.This week of hot weather has been brutal but the light is at the end of the tunnel. We have cooler temps coming and it's fall...which according to Home Depot, "Fall is for Planting." And for once, the big box stores have it right! So come on in or call for your plants...we've got them.
We're starting digging evergreens next week...please let us know what you're looking for and we can dig it for YOU!

We have rain! We got two days of rain this week, one light misty day and Wednesday was perfect day of rain. Steady rain all day soaked the ground and all our plants in ground and above. It took the strain off our irrigation system but made the day quite slow and wet for the crew!Our material looks great and it's perfect for planting. The ground is moist, the temps are warm again to help with some end of the season root and top growth so get out there and take advantage of it!

Wow, the third straight week with no rain. We've been running our irrigation system non-stop every day. The pipes get heavier in the field with each passing watering cycle.But we're set up with a great water system with our self contained ponds that hold more than enough water for us to keep our plants looking great.
Our container yard is packed with great material and everything is loaded with new growth. Our above ground BB stock also looks splendid.
We will begin digging evergreens as soon as we get some rain. So put on your dancing shoes and help us with a large and elaborate rain dance.
