It's getting COLD at night!
It is time to bring in any tender houseplants/tropical plants that have been outside for the summer. Yes, we still have some nice days ahead of us but the night temperatures are starting to get too cold for a lot of tender plants. Don't wish you would have and freeze your plants! Check plants for pests while they are still outside it is easier to treat them and you do not risk infesting other plants.
Fall Bulbs are here!
There is something magical about the first flowers of spring, plant bulbs in the fall and sit back and enjoy the flowers of your labor next spring! Here are some pro tips to having the most incredible bulb display next spring:
When to plant bulbs? Plant fall bulbs anytime from Mid-September through late-October. This gives them plenty of time to establish roots before the ground freezes.
How do I plant bulbs? Bulbs like a well draining soil, amend the area you are planting in with well aged manure or compost. Plant bulbs at a depth of three to four times the height of the bulb, example if the bulb is 2" tall it should be planted 6-8" deep. Put down some bulb fertilizer in the bottom of your hole, it needs to be in the root zone to be effective. Groups of bulbs make a larger impact then planting individual bulbs. Plant clusters of bulbs together and get flowers for longer by mixing bloom times and colors.
How do I keep squirrels and rabbits from eating my bulbs? Using a deterrent like Plantskydd when planting will keep those pesky rodents away from your bulbs.

Exciting changes in 2025!
Like in nature if you want to survive you need to adapt to an everchanging environment. Plants and gardening are continuing to grow more and more popular while the beverage industry is struggling. We love being here to assist you with your gardening and plant needs while providing some delicious drinks as well. To best utilize the space we have we are shrinking the size of our tasting rooms and using more space for the greenhouse. We are super excited about all of the changes. Stop in and check out our exhilarating transformation and sip on a beverage while you shop!
Check Out High Hops Brewery & The Heart Distillery, both located inside of The Windsor Gardener!
