Do I need to hire a landscaper?

<div><p>Buying plants from a nursery is one thing, but ensuring that they are properly planted is another. While you might not need to hire a landscaper for every plant that you buy from a nursery, it’s a great idea to have their expertise and experience to plant larger items, like burlapped trees or specialty plants like rose bushes. Even better, before making a trip to a nursery to buy new plants, consult a local landscaper to test your soil for pH levels, soil texture, and phosphorus and potassium levels to help determine the best plants for your area.</p></div>

What types of plants can I find in a nursery?

<div><p>Garden nurseries offer many plants to make your home and garden flourish. In-container plants are one option, including <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/choosing-perennial-flowers.htm">perennials</a>, annuals, and small shrubs or trees. Large hedge plants and roses are called bare-root plants, meaning they have not been potted. Finally, you will see some burlapped plants, typically larger trees and shrubs with burlap wrapping around the bottom.</p></div>

When is the best time to plant?

<div><p>The best time to plant is between spring and autumn. Springtime weather is typically mild and is when nurseries start to bloom. When the summer weather arrives and it’s hot out, it’s best to avoid planting bare-root plants, but you can still plant many in-container varieties. The first sign of fall is another great opportunity to plant biennials if you live in southern states, or a lovely vegetable garden up north.</p></div>

Do I need to provide plants from a nursery for a landscaper?

<div><p>If you’re hiring a landscaper to plant the garden of your dreams, you do not need to provide them with plants that you bought yourself from a nursery. While you certainly can provide your landscaper with plants, keep in mind that some nurseries provide discounts to landscaping companies, therefore potentially lowering your materials cost. Beyond the cost of the plants themselves, you need to have additional materials like topsoil and mulch for the project. Most likely, your landscaper can get a discount on these materials as well, so it’s worth speaking with them before making any large purchases.</p></div>

What are the main flower types?

<div><p>While there are over 400,000 different flowering plants worldwide, there are five main types of flowers. These flower types are based on their lifecycles, giving each type a unique personality. These types are:</p><ul><li><p><b>Annuals</b>, which complete their entire life cycle within a single growing season. </p></li><li><p><b>Perennials</b>, which the tops die off in the winter but regrow in spring. </p></li><li><p><b>Biennials</b>, which complete their entire life cycle within two years.</p></li><li><p><b>Hybrids</b>, which exhibit either annual or perennial behaviors depending on location</p></li><li><p><b>Flowering shrubs</b>, which are small to medium-sized perennial woody plants, such as shrubs or evergreens.</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

"From the moment I walked into this business on Feb. 9th, 2018 which was my second times in there I was greeted with the feel of racism and the people (Owners) acted as if they didn’t want nor need my business. The employee that had not been working there that long was very nice and helpful. But the owners which whenever they decided to come out to help on pricing kept giving me a different price each time. The male owner had to be called 3 times and each time he acted as if he was ignoring the clerk we both waited and he was also in plain view of us. He would quote me a price then walk away and come back and quote me another price. Guessing the female was his wife, she would also quote me a lower price and with him not knowing what she quoted he would quote me up to $15.00 to $20.00 dollars more than she did. When it was brought to his attention (by his clerk) that she had giving me a different quote he would call her to come to the front and all of a sudden she would find it in his favor and say something like, “Oh well the plant is really going for this price and he is giving you a better deal and you can not get a better price than that. I was left there thinking how these two people talking to me like I was a child that didn’t understand or that I was easy prey. I could not believe those “Arrogant ***-Holes!!!” I also kinder wanted to see those what the arrangement would look like and explain to them that I had purchase plants from them before which I picked but by the time they made it to the back the be prepped and made it to the Funeral Home the plant looked as if it had the consideration nor that ugh they put into it. Like there was no concern about how it was presented to the family. I too, did not want to give these people or this business a Star at all. “THUMB DOWN!!!” (Not only did I feel it but I was also told these people are very racist and the N-Word is used freely in their business)"
