Q-Any growing tips?

A-The tip we most often pass on is: These plants are from the wild, think about their enviroment and then duplicate it. 

A-Soaking your plants overnight or at least several hours prior to planting will do wonders for their growth. In the first year, keep them watered as needed. After they are established, they will need little care if planted in the proper enviroment.

A-Suprisingly, many people think ferns and wildflowers need full shade, that is not the case. Filtered shade is often the best, but many of our varieties can handle full sun. If you have a challeging area to plant, call our offices for help selecting the best variety of fern or wildflower.

Q-Any common mistakes?

A-The most common mistake we see is fertilizer. Do not use fertilizer on native plants. Although some exceptions can be made and there are some very gentle fertilizers, the common rule is do not use fertilizer. Fertilized ferns and wildflowers will look burnt and dried out but in fact it is a result of fertilization.

A-Another common mistake is planting them too deep. Most often the buds of ferns need to be just below the surface, and flowers only a few inches below the surface. For specific growing depth feel free to call our offices at 715 648-6805
