About one week left to keep stopping grassburs! If you applied the first application of Dimension pre-emergent in early March to stop grassburs and crabgrass, it's time to make the second application now! Don't neglect this application. Missing the second application of Dimension will allow weed grasses to emerge later this summer and the grassburs you started stopping in March will be back this summer. There is no post-emergent herbicide that will kill grassburs without doing damage to the lawn, so don't skip this application.

Proven Winners has a beautiful line of caladiums and just like many other PW offerings, they are super. Both fancy leaf and strap leaf caladiums make up the Heart to Heart series. They perform wonderfully in shade to partial shade areas in both large pots and beds. Pictured here is the fancy leaf cultivar Heart to Heart Lemon Blush.

Echinacea, better known as Purple Coneflower, is an excellent perennial for part sun to full sun beds. The days of all purple coneflowers being purple are over. A multitude of colors is now available: purple, pink, white, yellow, orange, coral, and red. Pictured here is Artisan Soft Orange. Try it or one of the many other cultivars we have available.
