General advise about Outdoor plants: Don’t kill your plants with kindness by overwatering. The is the most common mistake gardeners make. Different plants need different levels of moisture between watering. Some plants like moist soil between watering’s, while others prefer to dry out completely.
- Check the soil between watering’s with a stick, or even your finger, pushing below the top layer of soil or mulch to determine how moist the soil is.
- A watering can is an excellent choice for watering plants. Water well around the base.
- Water plants thoroughly. Water should run away from the edges of the plant or drain from the hole in the bottom of the pot.
Plants have individual nutrition needs, and beginning gardeners should be careful not to overfeed their plants. New plant installations will not need fertilizers or food of any kind for the first three months as they come from the nursery prepared for transplant.
Plant fertilizers come in three forms:
- Water-soluble: a liquid mixed with water and poured on the plant
- Spikes: a solid food that is pushed directly into the soil and releases nutrients slowly
- Granular: sprinkled around the base of a plant and watered in.
Keep an eye open for harmful insects or disease on new plant material. New plantings are not as strong as established plants, so they do require more attention. If you see a concern, you can research the issue or contact us for advice.
