Welcome Back!

2011-06-07T09:41:00.000-07:00

Dear Readers,

Man, oh man – will we ever again have the good ol’ transitions of Spring that we remember from our youth? 2011 marks the 4^th season in a row that we have had really unusual weather patterns-from the heat/drought conditions of Spring 2007, to the extremely cool and wet conditions that we “enjoyed” as we kicked of this year’s growing season. It’s been hard on you to get out into your gardens, and imagine how it’s been to try and plan production! I guess we never have to worry about being complacent or bored here in central Indiana – and let’s be thankful we’ve not seen some of the more catastrophic issues that we’ve seen in Joplin, and along the Mississippi.

Now that we are having hotter weather on the heels of all that moisture, there are two things that we’re seeing a bit earlier than normal.

1. Dollar Spot in Turf – this is a common disease to Indiana turfgrasses. The disease is named for the straw-colored, silver dollar-sized spots that appear in turf. The spots can appear larger in turf that is mowed higher. They will grow to become somewhat irregular circles 3-6 inches in diameter, and as the spots grow together, large areas of damage can occur. This disease occurs more often (though not exclusively) in lawns that are nitrogen deficient. Best practice for control is to apply fertilizer, and water infrequently and deeply. Additionally, it is best to mow only when the lawn is dry, to avoid spreading the disease. This is usually sufficient to bring the condition under control, but Dollar Spot does respond quickly to professional applications of fungicides.

*Remember though, that this is a cultural issue, and fungicides are only treatments, and not preventative at all. So if you don’t change the cultural issue, you’ll just get a repeat infestation.

2. Powdery Mildew – Another fungal disease, but this one affects a variety of landscape plants. It’s pretty easy to spot, because of its distinct appearance. The plant will display leaves which appear to be coated in a thin, whitish powder. It’s unsightly, but generally not harmful – though it should be noted that some leaves on the plant may become distorted, and any disease can weaken the plant over time, and leave it more susceptible to other issues and infestations. The main cause is poor air circulation, which can be created or compounded by plants that are too dense, or are planted too close together. Your best practice for control here is also cultural. Choose healthy plants, and disease-resistant varieties. Where possible, avoid planting non-resistant plants in the shade. Keep your shrubs and trees well-thinned and pruned, and divide plants often, to keep them from becoming too crowded. And if you do find yourself with an infected plant, follow a few basic guidelines: Improve air circulation by thinning and pruning, avoid watering plants from above, and most of all – wait to do any fertilization. Powdery Mildew prefers young, succulent growth, so best not to give it a perfect host for multiplying.

Virtually every plant can get Powdery Mildew, but it’s most common in the landscape on Dogwood, Lilac, Roses, and Crabapple. It is host-specific, which means that a different type of fungi will affect different types of plants. So your Dogwood mildew will not spread to your lilac, etc. But all types favor the same conditions. And just like Dollar Spot, it both responds well to fungicide, and will come back if you don’t change the environmental conditions that cause it, wherever possible.

I guess if there were no challenges to be had in the garden, there wouldn’t be a need for the gardening professional. If you need more help with your specific challenges, don’t hesitate to call us.

Happy gardening!

Chris

Autumn is here! Time to prepare your vegetable garden...

2010-10-13T11:04:00.000-07:00

Vegetable Garden Preparation

If you want to have tender spinach and lettuce next spring and delicious tomatoes later in the summer, this fall is the time to prepare your garden soil.
If you want to plant a garden for the first time, you need to pick out a sunny spot. This is a critical factor. The more sun the better. Keep in mind the time the garden will be shaded by buildings or trees. You need a minimum of 6 hours of sunlight per day.
After you have chosen your site, you need to decide how large of an area you want to plant and maintain. If you are a first time gardener, you may want to start small and plan to grow. Two hundred square feet is a good and substantial size for a first time garden. This could be laid out as four raised beds approximately 4 feet wide by 12 feet long or a single bed 14 feet by 14 feet.
Raised beds offer several advantages. They warm up faster in the spring. They drain well. You can work on them without stepping in the soil and thus compacting it regardless of the soil moisture – like when the peas need to be picked, and it has been raining for three days. There are some disadvantages as well. If you want them to be nice and tidy, you need to buy the frame to put around the soil. You need to find the soil to fill the beds. If you are going to fence the beds to keep rabbits and raccoons out you may have to buy more fencing. And depending on the need or desire to use mechanical tillers, beds can be problematic.

Regardless of which approach you take to garden layout, you will want to carefully prepare the soil. What you need to do will depend on the site. In general terms all grass and weeds should be removed or turned under using a shovel or mechanical tiller. Another approach is to cover the area with 8 – 10 sheets of newspaper covered with soil. In central Indiana where we generally have heavy clay soil, an ample amount of compost will need to be incorporated into the soil.Even though now may not be the time you are thinking of gardening, it is the time to get ready to garden. In March you will be glad you took the time to prepare now. And if you need help doing it, give us a call or send an email. We love to help people get into vegetable gardening.

Is there a best time to water outdoor plants?

2010-07-06T05:49:00.000-07:00

The best time of day to water the garden is early morning, before the heat of the day has set in. This reduces the amount of water lost through evaporation, and also provides water for the plants to help them get through the heat of the day. Every few days, water the garden with a deep soaking of water in the early morning, and use drip irrigation, watering cans, or targeted hoses, rather than sprinklers and other devices which diffuse the water all over the garden. Sprinklers are inefficient, and they can also cause plant damage. As a rule of thumb, try to water the garden with one inch (two and a half centimeters) of water every week, through a combination of precipitation and watering.
Do not water the garden during the heat of the day, because the water will evaporate, rather than penetrating the soil. The goal is to deeply soak the soil, encouraging the plant to put out more roots to search for water, rather than creating a shallow area of moisture and keeping it moist. A plant with ready access to water through daily watering will develop a shallow root system and become weakened. Plants which are used to the stress of less frequent watering will also do better in varied weather conditions, or when a gardener forgets to water the garden.
If watering in the evening, after the heat is passed, make sure to water early enough that the leaves of the plants will completely dry before night time. Fungal infections can colonize leaves which are left moist overnight, and roots will also suffer from being watered in the late evening. Being left moist and cold at night can lead to rot and fungal infections of plant roots, an undesired result.
If you are trying to conserve water, water the garden with reclaimed water and rainwater, and make sure to check your irrigation system for leaks frequently. If you have time, hand-water all of the plants to ensure the most efficient use of water, checking the soil for moisture levels. If you do not, invest in a quality irrigation system which will help your garden to flourish. Gardeners with less water concerns should still water the garden wisely, as extra water will not lead to healthier plants.

Why our mulch is better...

2010-05-19T11:08:00.000-07:00

As you may probably know by now, we are offering mulch sales and delivery. Have you seen our gigantic sign on I65N? We want to educate you on the benefit of using our mulch compared to other varieties out there.

We use Greendell AAA mulch. It is made from the bark portion of hardwood trees, not the interior wood. Because it consists of the bark, not the woody interior of the tree, it has a low cellulosic content. The low cellulosic content is absolutely critical in its role of feeding the landscape and enriching the soil for the surrounding plants. As the bark breaks down, it releases organic matter and nutrients to the soil, while maintaining moisture levels in the soil for root uptake. In stark contrast, mulch with a high cellulosic content (i.e. wood chips, recycled pallets, chipped up brush) pulls nitrogen, a key plant nutrient, from the soil as it decomposes, stealing this nutrient away from the plants, leaving the soil worse off than before. In addition, cellulose is the food of choice for termites, so spreading high- cellulose material around the foundation of your house should be avoided. When all things are considered, the AAA, while more costly, brings a ton of benefit to the health of your landscape, and ultimately is worth the investment.
We hope this helps give you a better understanding on the importance of using a high-quality mulch rather than other varieties which can be unhealthy for your plants.

Are your beds in bad shape? Give us a call today and consider using our premium hardwood mulch to bring your plantings back to life!

Roses for Valentine's Day?

2010-02-10T10:45:00.000-08:00

When giving cut roses as Valentine gifts, we adhere to a time-honored formula that takes into account rose color meanings. The formula matches a rose's color to its intended meaning as a gift. Valentine's Day is primarily a lovers' holiday, and red roses are traditionally for lovers. "Valentine roses" and "red roses" go hand in hand, even though other colors have their place on the holiday. Our close family members may also be treated to red roses for Valentine's Day, but we avoid giving roses of this color to friends on Valentine's Day - that would simply convey the wrong meaning. The following are the meanings traditionally attached to the most popular roses, according to colors; use this list as a guide when selecting Valentine roses:

Red roses mean romantic love; they're the "Valentine roses," par excellence.

Purple, coral and orange challenge red as the color for Valentine roses. The rose color meanings for these 3 are as follows:

The specific purpose of purple roses is to signify that the giver has fallen in love with the recipient at first sight.

Meanwhile, coral signals desire.

And orange roses, along with apricot, connote enthusiasm.

The meaning of yellow roses is joy and friendship.

We express our gratitude and appreciation with pink roses...

While feelings of admiration and sympathy find words with roses that are light pink in color.

Peach is more ambiguous, as it can signify either sympathy or gratitude.

Their purity naturally enough lends to white roses the meaning of reverence and humility.
Remember, absolutely NO black roses...

Happy Valentine's Day from Gardens of Growth!

2010 Flower & Patio Show

2009-12-23T05:17:00.000-08:00

We are currently preparing for the upcoming 2010 Indiana Flower & Patio Show at the Indiana State Fairgrounds. Mark your calendars for the week of March 13 - 21. This annual event will feature many of the area's top landscape firms and vendors. It's a great way to see the latest and greatest innovations in landscape design and construction.

Our space will focus on the conceptual idea of a very popular poem by Shel Silverstein, 'Where the Sidewalk Ends'. Silverstein’s words set the mood for our imaginations to take over and think of an amazingly perfect place. We believe that gardens have the power to heal and we strive to create a garden oasis for our clients. Allow us to help free your imagination and create that special place on your property by visiting us at the 2010 Flower and Patio Show to witness what we see where the sidewalk ends. We hope to see you there!

Where the Sidewalk Ends
By: Shel Silverstein

There is a place where the sidewalk ends and before the street
begins, and there the grass grows soft and white, and there the sun burns
crimson bright, and there the moon-bird rests from his flight to cool in the
peppermint wind.

Let us leave this place where the smoke blows black and the dark street winds and bends. Past the pits where the asphalt flowers grow we shall walk with a walk that is measured and
slow, and watch where the chalk-white arrows go to the place where the sidewalk
ends. Yes we'll walk with a walk that is measured and slow, and we'll go where
the chalk-white arrows go, for the children, they mark, and the children, they
know the place where the sidewalk ends.

What is Lawn Aeration?

2009-10-29T06:14:00.000-07:00

Lawn aeration is the secret weapon in making your lawn healthy. Aeration involves making holes in the lawn either by pushing a rod into it or by "coring", extracting a plug of soil. By aerating your lawn you provide the following benefits to your lawn and its root system:

Oxygen gets to the roots and the soil allowing it to "breathe"
Organic fertilizers and nutrients get access to the root system
Water is able to better soak the soil and reach the root system
Helps to break up thatch
Tight, compacted soil is loosened up allowing the root system to grow

Lawn aeration is one of the many lawn services we offer. Early Fall is a great time to have this done. It will bring life to your lawn and allow for a healthy root system and a beautiful yard!

Fall Services

2009-10-19T07:55:00.000-07:00

Welcome back to our blog! We plan on updating this on a more regular basis (once a week). We would like to offer you some of our Fall services.

~ Gertrude Jekyll

“Fortunate gardener, who may preoccupy himself solely with beauty...A useless member of society, considered in terms of economics, he must not be denied his rightful place. He deserves to share it, however humbly, with the painter and poet.”
~ Vita Sackville-West

“Good bones are important, so it is wise to go slowly and get your plan right before launching into a vital project.”
~ Rosemary Verey

“Even the most irresistible flowering plant, one that I call a ‘key’ performer, is part of a whole cast; it has to be considered as a component in an overall look as well as for its individual charms.”
~ Penelope Hobhouse

Garden Maintenance is Important

2009-01-14T18:02:00.000-08:00

Garden Maintenance is very important. If you decide to invest in a garden or professional landscape, be sure to ask about maintenance and allow time in your schedule.

Professionals at Gardens of Growth develop and refine a customized management program for each client. A site specific supervisor is assigned to each project to oversee all aspects of the landscape maintenance for years to come.

There is no such thing as a maintenance free garden. Every garden requires tending and care or it ceases to be a garden.

Who we are

2008-11-11T09:18:00.000-08:00

Gardens of Growth is a successful landscape architecture design/build firm based in Indianapolis, Indiana. The firm was founded in 2003 by husband and wife team Adam Garvey and Casey May, who met while studying landscape architecture at Ball State University.

We remain committed to acting as both designer and contractor for our projects. While most design/build firms are dominated by contractors, Gardens of Growth is unique in that we are designers first. We approach the design/build process similar to the ‘Master Builders’ of Ancient Greece, where the process of landscape architecture is a holistic approach, with careful attention paid to each phase of the design and construction process. This holistic approach to design and construction provides greater financial and aesthetic control. Beautiful spaces are created when each and every component of the landscape is carefully designed and executed.
