April 2021
Spring has arrived!
Ahhh...Spring has sprung and our Colorado weather is, as usual this time of year, bouncing back and forth between 20 and 70 degrees; snow and rain, rain and snow, and sometimes on both on the same day!

We are busy friends. Very very busy. We are receiving truckloads of trees, shrubs, perennials and annuals on a daily basis. Our greenhouses are alive and full so we are continuously watering and caring for our thousands of recently created hanging baskets and pots.

We are also filled to the brim with garden and gift items including (but not limited to) bird houses, baths, and feeders, plant pottery, statues, benches, garden tools and supplies, and fountains. We are here to welcome you 7 days a week.

As a reminder, April is a great month to get your lawn in order and we have lots of fertilizer and grass seed on hand to help you out with that. In addition, our delivery and planting crews will be mobilizing this month and are ready to help you enhance your property with fresh new trees and shrubs. Come in early and pick out that beautiful flowering tree you wish you had every spring when you see them blooming all over town! ;)

April Hours:
Monday - Friday 8-6
Saturday 8-5
Sunday 9-4
What's happening at PLN this month?


We are sprucing up the place!

Garden Thymes with Jackie
"I think that no matter how old or infirm I may become, I will always plant a large garden in the spring. Who can resist the feelings of hope and joy that one gets from participating in nature's rebirth?" - Edward Giobbi
Let's get your landscape ready for a fresh new season!
General Landscaping
  • Your landscape plants are beginning to push so it's extremely important to pay close attention and make sure you are meeting their water needs.
  • Keep up general maintenance such as tool preparation, bed clean up, pruning out damaged branches, soil improvement, and don't forget your garden exercises!
Shrubs & Trees
  • Remove tree wrap and deep root water your trees.
  • Cut back mid-late summer flowering shrubs such as Potentilla, Russian Sage, and Spirea's.
  • In late April prune roses back 18" above ground level, remove dead canes, pull the mulch back a few inches from the plants, and gently work rose formulated fertilizer into the ground taking care not to damage surface roots.
Veggies & Herbs
  • Start warm season vegetable seeds indoors such as tomatoes, peppers, or eggplant.
  • Plant cool season vegetables in your outdoor beds, just make sure to protect them if we get a hard freeze.
Annuals & Perennials
  • Clean your annual flower boxes and containers in preparation for summer color.
  • Start planting perennials and bare-root plants in your gardens!
  • In mature beds, it's time to divide fall & summer blooming perennials for
  • better blooms this summer.
