FOR YOU. TATI AMARE?
TATI AMARE? >> THANK YOU JASON.
DESPITE THE COLDER SPRING
WEATHER WE’VE BEEN HAVING YOU
CAN START YOUR GARDEN WITHOUT
EVEN DIGGING IN THE GROUND.
HOW ABOUT THAT?
OUR FRIENDS AT ENGLISH GARDENS
HAVE BEAUTIFUL WAYS TO ADD
FRESH COLORFUL FLOWERS TO YOUR
HOME AND WE WANT TO WELCOME
BACK THE VICE PRESIDENT RICK
VESPA.
VESPA. THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE.
MEMORIAL DAY IS OUR TRADITIONAL
PLANTING WEEKEND AND METRO
DETROIT.
DETROIT. YOU HAVE ALL KINDS OF OPTIONS
FOR US.
FOR US. WHAT DO YOU HAVE?
>>Man: WHEN YOU START WITH
TREES AND SHRUBS AS THE
STRUCTURE AND PERENNIALS YOU
PLAN AND THEY COME BACK YEAR
AFTER YEAR AND GIVE YOU COLOR
AND TEXTURE.
AND TEXTURE. RIGHT NOW MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND
A TRADITIONAL ANNUAL PLANTING
FOR THE COLOR YOU SEE ALL
SEASON LONG.
SEASON LONG. AND THOSE ARE THE ONES WE PLAN
EVERY YEAR AND YOU COLOR ALL
SEASON LONG.
SEASON LONG. FOLKS DID THEY TELL YOU I WAS
PLANT DEFICIENT?
PLANT DEFICIENT? THOSE ARE THE ONES YOU PLANT,
THANK YOU.
THANK YOU. >>Man: I THINK I CAN HELP
BECAUSE THAT IS THE BIGGEST
QUESTION WE GET IS THE ANNUAL
PERENNIAL THING SEEMS TO
CONFUSE EVERYONE.
CONFUSE EVERYONE. PLANS COME IN DIFFERENT SIZES
AND WHY IS THAT IMPORTANT?
YOUR TRADITIONAL FLAT WITH
SMALL PLANTS.
SMALL PLANTS. >> LET’S HOPE THAT WE CAN TAKE
A LOOK AT IT.
>> THIS IS A SUPER SIX PACK
MUCH BIGGER PLANT.
>> LET ME HOLD US WE CAN SEE
THE SIZES.
THE SIZES. >> THESE ARE KIND USE AND
BEDDING PLANT.
BEDDING PLANT. THE BIGGER THE PLAN THE QUICKER
THE COVERAGE AND THE CLOSER YOU
PLANT THESE TOGETHER THE
QUICKER THEY WILL FILL IN AND
THRIVE. > WHAT ABOUT THOSE IN
THE MIDDLE?
THE MIDDLE? >> POTTED PLANTS LIKE THIS
EXERCISE AND THESE COME IN A
NUMBER OF DIFFERENT VARIETIES
AND ARE GREAT FOR MAKING COMBO
POTS.
POTS. YOU CAN ALSO PLANT THESE IN THE
GARDEN BUT THE GREAT AND POTS
AND YOU CAN CUSTOMIZE YOUR
CONTAINER MIX.
CONTAINER MIX. >> THAT’S A NICE TOUCH YOU HAVE
SOMETHING IN A POT BECAUSE YOU
CAN MOVE IT AROUND AND NOT
COMMITTED JUST YET.
LOOKS VERY GOOD POINT.
AS A MATTER FACT WITH COLD
WEATHER, YOU’RE NOT SURE ABOUT
THE WEATHER AND IT CONTINUES
YOU CAN MOVE THEM INTO THE
GARAGE ON A PORCH IF YOU NEED
TO.
TO. BIGGER SIZE YOU HAVE THE
GALLONS.
GALLONS. AGAIN IF YOU HAVE A LARGE
CONTAINER WANT TO GET SOMETHING
INSTANT IMPACT SO THERE YOU GO.
FOR REALLY INSTANT IMPACT
HANGING BASKETS OF COURSE YOU
CAN HANG THEM.
>> I WAS SWOONING OVER THIS ONE
BECAUSE THIS IS BEAUTIFUL.
>> PEOPLE DON’T THINK ABOUT
USING HANGING BASKETS AS AN
IN-STATE CONTAINER PLANT.
TAKE THE HANGER OFF A DROP IN A
CONTAINER AS EIGHT PEOPLE PLANT
HANGING BASKETS IN THE GROUND
FOR QUICK COVERAGE.
>> INTERESTING.
>> INTERESTING. I WOULD NOT HAVE THOUGHT OF
THAT EITHER.
THAT EITHER. WHAT A GREAT TIP.
WE HAVE WAYS TO ADD COLOR LIKE
YOU SAID WITH CONTAINERS BUT
WHAT SHOULD WE CONSIDER WHEN
ADDING CONTAINER FLOWERS TO OUR
SURROUNDINGS?
SURROUNDINGS? WHAT IS THE SCIENCE FOR THAT?
>>Man: WHEN YOU ARM PLANTING
MASS PLANTINGS AND BEDS FOR
INSTANCE YOU WANT TO USE A
STARTER FERTILIZER MIX IN THE
SOIL BEFORE YOU PLANT.
WHEN YOUR PLANT IN A CONTAINER
ALWAYS USE NEW SOIL EVERY YEAR
AND MAKE SURE THE CONTAINER HAS
DRAINAGE BUT YOU CAN MIX THE
SAME THINGS, STARTER
FERTILIZER.
FERTILIZER. AFTER THAT THE CARE IS
ESSENTIAL REMEMBER YOU NEED TO
CHOOSE PLANS BASED ON SET AND
SHADED BASED ON THAT STUFF BUT
AFTERWARDS WATERING IS
ESSENTIAL IN FERTILIZING EVERY
WEEK TO TWO WEEKS WITH A WATER
SOLUBLE IS ESSENTIAL FOR
GETTING THE STUFF TO REALLY DO
WHAT IT CAN DO.
>> YOU GUYS CAN HELP US WITH
ALL THAT WILL BECOME AN.
I CAN TELL YOU OF SOMETHING
THAT HAS A LOT OF SHADE BUT I
DON’T HAVE A LOT OF TIME TO
WATER AND YOU CAN TALK ME
THROUGH EVERYTHING I WOULD NEED
TO FIT WHAT I NEED.
>>Man: ,AND TO ANY OF OUR SEVEN
LOCATIONS AND OUR EXPERTS CAN
WALK YOU THROUGH IT UNTIL
