RIP to the Poor Boy's twitter. @DLHaze, thank you for being our loyal sole supporter. We hope you enjoyed the Jay and Yeezy concert in 2011.
Time to bring your plants inside. Prepare your houseplants for their return indoors. Repot if necessary and spray with insecticidal soap.
Fall leaves are beautiful, but not in your pond! Cover your pond with netting to minimize debris from falling autumn leaves.
The changing weather means work for you and your garden! Begin fall clean up now to spread the workload out over the fall season.
Looking to enrich your lawn? Aerate and dethatch if you plan to rejuvenate your lawn this fall.
It's time to prepare shrubs for the cold! Fertilize spring-blooming, acid-loving shrubs, like azalea and rhododendron, with HollyTone.
Don't let the weather discourage you from planting! Stop by now for the best selection of winter pansies, mums, ornamental cabbage and kale!
Want to make your color last? Plant cold hardy annuals in containers for extended fall color.
