Our knowledgeable staff here at Garden-Ville are available to answer many of the questions you might have about gardens, landscaping, and trees. Many problems with plants, however, cannot be responsibly diagnosed other than in person. We're located in central Texas and may not be familiar with the details of gardening in very different climate or soil zones. One of the guiding principles of organic growing is adapting methods to the particularites of local soil and climate. With that in mind we'll do our best to answer your question, but if we can't we'll be happy to help you find the appropriate resources or professionals in your area.

  • Hi, I planted three tress around Easter and one the leaves have fallen off and the other the leaves look yellow. Is this because of two much rain or because I did not plant them correctly? They were Oak and China Berry andl small enough that the bamboo stick was still attached. Thanks, Brian.

    Fertilizer, Tree Questions

    Since you have planted the trees how many times have you fertilized? Also, after planting did you add a ring of mulch around the tree? If so is the mulch touching the bark of the tree? If you have not fertilized since planting the tree I would suggest feeding the tree with a good organic fertilizer like Garden-Ville’s Premium Lawn Fertilizer 7-2-2 and follow up with and application of an iron source like Garden-Ville’s Greensand. The rain might have leached out the nutrients in the soil and since trees require the most fertilizer and care when they are starting out that could be the reason for what you are seeing.
