You CAN Grow Flowers in Winter

noreply@blogger.com (Susan) — Thu, 13 Jan 2011 16:52:00 +0000

Is the weather keeping you from gardening? For many gardeners, winter means dreaming about gardening instead of actually doing it. While, you may not be able to get out in your garden, you can still garden on a small scale and enjoy some beautiful homegrown flowers.

Amaryllis are perfect for growing near a sunny window. So easy to plant, and a real mood-lifter in the midst of winter. Right now you can generally find them on sale at your local box store, and if you can't or you want a larger selection to choose from, Blooming Bulb has them on sale for up to 55% off the regular price.

Carolyn at Aiken House & Gardens may be snowbound on Prince Edward Island, but she's enjoying a pretty collection of amaryllis growing in front of a window. By the way, you'll want to check out Carolyn's garden which is beautiful in all four seasons.

Autumn Savings

noreply@blogger.com (Susan) — Fri, 29 Oct 2010 13:24:00 +0000

Autumn is a great time to purchase plants...at BARGAIN PRICES at Blooming Bulb, including 60% off Oriental Lily mixes.

At this time of year, I always purchase a new plant variety I've never tried before. And, if I'm satisfied with its performance next summer, I'll purchase a couple additional plants to create a bigger impact in my garden the following fall.

Last year I purchased a Royal Standard hosta...I was hesitant because hostas don't fare well in my hot and humid climate, but they guaranteed me this variety would grow in my zone 9 garden. I'm thrilled that the hosta bloomed and is quickly multiplying, as well. This year I'm in search of a new amaryllis variety.

What new plants are you searching for?

Save on Fringed Tulip Collection

noreply@blogger.com (Susan) — Wed, 04 Aug 2010 14:48:00 +0000

Fall is just around the corner, and that means getting tulip bulbs into the ground in anticipation of spring. WOW! It's hard to believe that you need to place your bulb order in August... so you can plant in the fall...and then finally enjoy them at the end of a long, cold winter. Talk about being organized and planning ahead. That takes the cake.

Unfortunately, for me I can't grow tulips down here in the south, but for those of you who can Blooming Bulb has reduced the price of their Fringed Tulip Collection from ~~$39.45~~ to $19.98.

The collection includes 5 bulbs each of Daytona, Lambada, Crystal Beauty, Hamilton, and Curly Sue (LOL - my sister once had a cat with this same name). In addition, there's a free gift 5 Queensland bulbs included with your order.

Wal-Mart's "Site to Store" Program Saves Shipping Costs

noreply@blogger.com (Susan) — Tue, 30 Sep 2008 14:04:00 +0000

Wal-Mart is known for their low prices, and now they've come up with a great "site to store" program that offers free shipping. It works especially great on heavy items such as arbors, patio furniture and lawn equipment.

You simply visit Wal-Mart's Web site and browse their extenstive selection of items, purchase the item(s) you're looking for and have it shipped to the store nearest you for pick-up - and you pay NO SHIPPING COSTS!

I've used it several times, previously to buy a trelles and last week when I purchased two patio chairs that were on sale. The highlight of this program for me is that I am able to choose from a larger selection than is available in their store, but yet I don't have to pay a hefty shipping cost.

Note: When placing your order, be sure to select the "site to store" shipping method.

Here's a list of the latest fall garden bargains!

Garden Bargains Online recognized as a Smart Money-Saving Source for Gardeners!

noreply@blogger.com (Susan) — Tue, 22 Jul 2008 16:05:00 +0000

Garden Bargains Online (see our latest money-saving offer below) was mentioned by MoneySmart columnist Walecia Konrad in USA Weekend as a "Smart" Source to save money on lawn and garden products.

Below is a clip of the section for "Garden and Lawn Care"

Garden and lawn care

Smart: Don't hesitate to go for garden center leftovers. Annuals and perennials are likely root-bound by now, leaving you free to negotiate a lower price. Many plants can be given a makeover with this quick fix from Craig Cramer of Cornell University's horticulture department: Turn the root ball upside down and use a knife to cut an X halfway up into the soil. Spread the four flaps and plant in well-prepared soil or potting mix. Then cut off the flowers and cut back the stems by about one-third to encourage the plant to take root faster. Water frequently.

Smarter: Save on gardening and lawn-care supplies at sites such as GardenBargainsOnline.com, a clearinghouse for coupons, discounts, free shipping and other special offers at nursery and garden product companies. A $27.99 neoprene garden tote, for example, was recently on sale for $19.99. Gardeners.com also offers good prices on overstock items. Be sure to check often for the best deals.

Smartest: Consider low- or no-cost alternatives. Instead of expensive landscaping cloth, black plastic or mulch, use sheets of old newspaper covered with a layer of soil to prevent weeds. And reuse packing peanuts in raised beds and containers instead of buying expensive, heavy crushed stone, says b gardening expert David Beaulieu.

Thanks, USA Weekend for recognizing Garden Bargains Online as a smart money-saving source for gardeners!

6 Water-Wise Products for the Garden

noreply@blogger.com (Susan) — Mon, 14 Jul 2008 19:27:00 +0000

If you're seriously looking to reduce your water usage and save money (and who isn‘t these days), here are 6 clever products engineered to do just that, plus they’re time-savers!

Terra-Sorb Drought-proof crystals
These non-toxic crystals absorb 200 times their weight in water, then release it gradually as plants need it. I used these on container plants while I was on vacation and they worked great!

Water Rings
five-gallon reservoir prevents water runoff and drought for newly planted trees and shrubs. You can even add fertilizer to the water. Great idea for new or thirsty plants.

Precision Drip Spikes
These dripper spikes ensure consistent and thorough watering. The drip reservoir has 11 dial-in settings that release ½ oz to 75 oz a day. A set of 4 holds standard 1- or 2- liter bottles (your own), and be used indoors or out. A great idea for recycling soda bottles.

Hydro Grow Hose
A slimmer, more flexible soaker hose that works perfect in flower or vegetable gardens for uniform watering.

Digital Water Timer
Easy to set! This gadget simplifies your water chores, and it has a handy "suspend" function for rainy days. A super time-saver when attached to a soaker hose.

All-Purpose Rain Barrel
Great for collecting rainwater for use on container or ground plantings.

Note: All of these products are available at Gardener’s Supply Co.

Here are some additional tips for reducing your water usage.

* Repair leaks in your outdoor hoses and faucets. Add a spray nozzle with a shut off valve to your hose, and shut the water flow off as needed when you’re in the garden.

* Water plants and lawn in the early morning hours to reduce water loss from evaporation.

* Add super-absorbent hydrogel crystals to container plantings to help retain moisture and reduce daily waterings.

* Add organic matter such as compost to your planting holes to help plants retain water.

* Use soaker hoses or drip irrigations systems (with a timer) when possible to reduce water loss from evaporation. They use 25% to 50% less water than sprinklers.

* Place mulch around plants to help retain water in the soil. It’s one of the most efficient ways to prevent moisture loss in the soil.

* Collect rainwater in a rain barrel to water indoor and outdoor plants.

* Replace dead plants with drought-tolerant varieties. Join Home Depot’s Garden Club and receive money-saving coupons for plants and products.
