Living Christmas Trees, White Dogwoods, Paeony, Hosta, Mugho Pines, are now in

DORMANT SPRAY REMINDER The first dormant spray for your fruit trees is coming up soon. They should lose their leaves very soon and as soon as they do, it is time for the first dormant spray of the season. Use copper mixed with horticultural oil or Neem oil. Spray the entire tree. This is to prevent leaf curl and any fungus problems that may come up. It will also help to prevent or minimize fireblight. The next application will be in December right around Christmas.
