Tips for Planting Your Garden this Spring


Spring is just a few short weeks away, and we here at Edgefield Plant & Stone Center are excited for the upcoming warm months! We are a garden center serving Colfax NC, and we wanted to share a few of our favorite tips on how to get your garden ready this spring.

Start by taking a look at your flower beds. Clear out any debris and leaves that built up during the winter months. Cut back the dead parts on any perennial plants you have in your yard, and prune any trees you have while you're at it. If you see any broken branches and want to cut them off, make sure it's a clean cut so the tree will heal faster.

Then take another look at your flower beds and start coming up with a plan for them. Do you want to add any new plants or flowers? Visit our garden center to browse through our selection. We can answer your questions, advise you on how to best care for your plants and on which ones will work best in this climate and environment.

You should also start thinking about fertilizing your plants. If you already compost, then you are one step ahead of the game! Compost is a great fertilizer. Otherwise, visit our garden center and we can also advise you on the best fertilizers to use.

Our garden center is also a great place to shop for perennial plants and gardenias. The early spring is the best time of year to shop for these types of flowers and plants, so be sure to come by as soon as possible!

Finally, there are plenty of rabbit and deer proof fences available, if these animals are a problem for you.
