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 bought a 3 gallon container with a Forever and Ever Hydrangea. How long can I leave it in the container I purchased it in before transplanting it into the ground? Thank you for a quick response. :-)

    Container Planting, Rocket Fuel

    It is always recommended to either put the plant in the ground or re-pot the plant in a larger container. If you remove the plant from the container the root system will generally tell you what you should do. If the roots are showing and there is no soil around them it is time to either plant in the ground or in a larger container. Don't forget to add a root stimulator to the plant to keep it from going into transplant shock. Garden-Ville makes a product called Rocket Fuel that is excellent for transplanting and can be put directly on the roots to ensure a healthy start for the plant.
