Rhizosphaera Needle Cast

If you notice needle loss and or browning on your Colorado Blue Spruce, read this article on Rhizosphaera Needle Cast.  This fungus may affect other conifers as well, but some are more resistant than others.  Don't wait if you see any of the symptoms of this, because you will need to treat your tree(s) with a fungicide early on to help prevent further damage. 

PLANTING and CARING for your New Plants

Did you know you can overwater your new plants?  Your plant roots, like us, need oxygen to survive.  Overwatering can literally “drown” the roots by replacing the oxygen pockets in the soil with water.  Please follow our Planting and Care Instructions so your plants can breathe and stay healthy!

Cable Locate

Before digging on your property, it is important that you call "Indiana 811" to have all your buried lines located.  In fact, it's the law! You must make this free call at least two full working days prior to digging.

Weed Control

We have a couple of new solutions for weed control.  Using these two products together you can kill existing weeds and prevent new weeds for 3-6 months in areas such as along fences, in cracks in patios or sidewalks, along the driveway etc.  These products are NOT sprayed in lawns (unless you are wanting to kill all vegetation). The products may also be used individually, depending on your needs.
