We look forward to the summer all year. July and August are here and it's time for a lot of us to embark on our family vacations. There is so much to do to get ready to go that most of us don't give a second thought to our spring investments- our beautiful plants! Aside from hiring someone to water your plants, praying for rain or installing a sprinkler system, here are a couple ideas and ways to save our plants from demise when we go away this summer-
-Use a product like ArborJet's NutriRoot. Use this fertilizer before you leave! The patented blend of humectants enables soil to extract water from the air into the root zone,
reducing the need for watering and resulting in successful plantings even in stressed conditions.
-Insert Plant Nannys into all of your containers for a slow release of water while you are away.
-Set your hose or soaker hose on a timer system
-I always try to fertilize my plants with Neptune's Harvest or Dr. Earth products before I leave for vacation. This greens them up and pushes blooms so they look better than they would have when I get home from being away for a week.
Achin' Back has all of these products and more to help your plants survive while you are not home. Stop by to get some advice or to figure out how to make your spring annuals last through the remainder of the summer. We are always here to help. Happy Vacationing!
