🌱Garden Research Beyond a Google Search for Better Plants🌱

Hey there, it's Ken Lain, the Top 10 Gardener. So, you want to find the perfect plants for your garden? Good for you! Google's a start, but let's dive deeper for the best results. Here's why a little extra research pays off:

  • Know your zone: Your USDA Hardiness Zone is the key to picking plants that will thrive. It's based on your average winter lows.
  • Light matters: Full sun, part shade, total shade... these aren't just suggestions! Match the plant's needs to what your garden offers.
  • Space invaders: Know the mature size of a plant. A cute little shrub can turn into a monster that swallows your flower bed.
  • Water wise: Choose plants with similar watering needs. Grouping them together saves time and prevents over or underwatering issues.

    • Watters Garden Center has a ton of resources beyond Google. Visit their website https://shop.wattersgardencenter.com/ for detailed plant descriptions, care guides, and even local advice. Get the right plants, in the right spots, and your garden will be a joy!
