We're getting lots of calls and drop-in visitors with questions about damaged/sickly plants in their landscape. Just a few moments ago, we had a gal drop by this morning with branches from a dead plant. Let us put your minds at ease: You did not kill your plant. It is not your fault. Remember, we had a very tough winter with three days of subfreezing temps. It was very hard on all but the hardiest of plants.


The weather has been strange this year, to say the least.  Today's weather was no exception.  It's almost May.  We've just had some gorgeous warm spring weather.  And yet today, hail.  A crazy few moments of hail.  It was so loud on our metal roof that sitting in my office upstairs, I felt briefly that I was sitting within a snare drum.  Thankfully it didn't last long and there was no damage.  But it leaves you wondering, when it comes to weather, what in the world is next?
