Kelly Marcum will be talking about the history of this beautiful ground cover and how it came to be!  Patented in 2014 by Kelly Marcum, this sweet potato vine's showy heart-shaped 'Ace of Spades' like foliage starts out lime green. As the foliage matures, it showcases a marbled purplish-black and vibrant lime green.

    Gardening in Clay Soil? 
Let us Help!

Heavy clay drains slowly, meaning it stays saturated longer after rain or irrigation. Then, when the sun finally comes out and the soil dries, it forms a hard, cracked surface.
Here are some tips for making clay soil more manageable and easier to work.

1. Test your soil's pH and adjust if necessary
2. Add Marcum's Nursery's Organic Redbud Compost
3. Garden in a raised bed to improve drainage
4. Mulch beds over the winter
5. Additional info about gardening in clay soils can be found  here
APRIL MAINTENANCE GUIDELINES
  • After danger of frost begin planting vegetables, herbs, summer flowering bulbs and annuals.
  • Add Marcum's Nursery organic Redbud Compost to revitalize your nutrients while planting new plants.
  • Apply ferti-lome Systemic Insecticide Drench to trees and shrubs to protect them from wood boring insects.
  • Apply ferti-lome Rose & Flower Food with Systemic Insecticide once a month through our growing seasons.
  • Apply ferti-lome Systemic Fungicide to prevent mildew and leaf spot diseases for roses, photinias, etc.
