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.

  • I have several hooly ferns that are getting some yellowing, almost like they are variegated, but I know there not. It started with all of this rain. I was woundering if you had any clue as to why this might be happening.

    Plant Questions, Potassium Bicarbonate

    It's always challenging to diagnose a problem without actually seeing the plant itself because there can be several reasons as to why the leaves are yellowing.  It is possible that too much water (puddling) and lack of sunlight can produce some yellowing.  Other causes of yellowing in leaves can be attributed to lack of nitrogen or iron which can be remedied by applying some of Garden-Ville's 6-2-2 Soil Food Select All-Purpose Fertilizer or adding Green Sand.  You might also want to examine the leaves more closely for signs of pests or fungus.  Garden-Ville's Potassium Bicarbonate (2 tablespoons per gallon of water) or our Organic Insecticide may work well to fix those kind of problems.
