Callers:

• Grant – Every year he plants flowers in a planter outside his home and wants some advice on soil treatment in addition to his current methods.

Recommendation – Always add organic material. With our heat and lack of water, organic additions are a must! Try compost from Hickman’s or  Mel’s Mix from GroWell.

• Cindy – She’s had a very full bougainvillea that was eaten alive by something very quickly while she was gone for a few days.

Recommendation – A caterpillar has been running rampant in the area recently. Apply systemic granules. Biofeed or Bonide have the right product.

• Vince – He took out a tree recently and wants a few suggestions on shade trees that have limited cleanup required.

Recommendation – Jay likes the Live Oak…strong and sturdy.
