ALTHOUGH PANSIES ARE AT THEIR PRIME,

IT IS TIME TO PLAN FOR SUMMER FLOWERS 
 

Examples of our healthy thriving pansies as a result of our disease
control program.

 

The extraordinarily wet February and March were tough on the pansies but the improving weather is helping most plantings thrive.

 

Every year winter is challenging for pansies as the wet weather promotes disease. We treat our pansies as needed to combat the disease pressure. There is no additional charge for this as regardless of the number of treatments, our disease control program is built into our fall pansy planting and the cost is all inclusive. As we have promoted, our program is intensive and may cost a little bit more but it is well worth it. We do what it takes to ensure our customers' pansies survive and thrive. Year after year we see other contractors' flowers struggle and sometimes die while ours flourish.


 
As we have every year, we have an annuals test bed at our office. This year instead of testing different color combinations, we decided to test variations of our disease control program. This is another effort to keep ahead of the threats with research of various fungicides and treatments to ensure future success. Stop by and check them out if you are in the area. http://www.pacscape.com/services/seasonal-color.php

   SUMMER COLOR ON THE WAY 
  
  
Although pansies are just getting to their peak color display, we are already planning our summer flower plantings as they begin in about one month. Summer flower planting is always an exciting signal that summer is forthcoming and we are again excited to produce new and unique color combinations.
 
Seasonal color is an area where we shine as our color combinations are always creative and our maintenance program ensures peak health and color. We will again try some experimental planting schemes in our test bed at our office.
