Spring will be here in just 2 short weeks! In the meantime, we've got a few things to tide you over: 'get your green on' with houseplants, prepare roses for a showy spring and summer, make sure your tools are in good shape, and maybe even plan a summer gardening getaway. Go ahead...dig in!
Go Green!
Satisfy your gardening urge with houseplants. Bring some green inside with plants like fiddle-leaf fig, peace lily, or pothos. Learn more about how to grow these plants and find out which ones are easy-peasy and which one is a little more high maintenance.
Beautiful, healthy roses are just 8 steps away! Learn the how, when, and why of pruning roses. We know you can do it! But, if pruning isn't your thing, you'll also find a low-maintenance landscape rose that will melt all your pruning worries away.
Are your garden tools as ready for spring as you are? Now is a great time to give them a once over. Learn how you can keep them looking and working their best. Also, check out our 12 must-haves for your tool shed.
