 Featured Annual
Angelonia

Purple flowers bloom continuously on this heat tolerant Angelonia. A compact, full plant that is very well branched and needs no pinching. Will grow to 10-12 inches tall and 12-14 inches wide.
 Its brilliant yellow foliage is a show stopper! In spring, clusters of pink blooms begin to emerge. This deciduous shrub reaches 18-24 inches tall and 2 feet wide.
Hosta
We carry many shade loving hosta varieties at our locations - it's too hard to pick a favorite! If you struggle to find plants that thrive in shady environments, a hosta will do perfectly! 
MAY MAINTENANCE GUIDELINES 
  • Plant your container, ball & burlap (B&B) trees, shrubs and perennials! Don't forget to use Marcum's Redbud Compost with root stimulator for best results.
  • Mulch around your plants to aid in moisture control as summer quickly approaches.
  • Apply Natural Guard Spinosad or Natural Guard Catepillar Killer Spray with BT for early sightings of bag worms and tent catepillars. Hi-Yield 38 Plus or Hi-Yield Malathion are recommended if heavy infestations have formed.   
  • Soak new transplants and newly planted trees unless rainfall is abundant. See Marcum's Nursery watering guidelines for details.
  • The second application of pre-emergent can be applied in May to early-June depending upon timing of first application. 
  • Nut sedge plants become visible during May. Post-emergent treatments are best applied for the first time this month. Make certain warm-season grasses have completed green-up. Sedgehammer is the recommended product for nut sedge control.
  • Dollar spot disease can first become visible on lawns in mid-May. Apply ferti-lome Liquid Systemic Fungicide or ferti-lome F-Stop. Make sure fertilizer applications have been adequately applied before applying a fungicide.
  • Fertilize warm-season lawns with B. R.'s lawn tonic (28-6-12) or Nitro Green (31-0-0) in May.
  • Fertilize cool-season lawns with Marcum's 18-6-12 fertilizer if you did NOT fertilize in March and April.
  • Seed warm-season grasses (Bermuda and Zoysia) in mid-May through the end of June.
  • In mid-May, treat for pine needle diseases with copper fungicide.
  • Set out your annual bedding plants for summer color.
  • Apply Hi-Yield's Grub Free Zone II to control short tailed crickets.
