Have a wonderful weekend. Knock-Out Roses are amazing!! 1yr in from 5 gallon & haven’t fertilized. They were installed with living soil & almost 1 year later are due for a boost. Yes, we do that too

Did you know we have beautiful AZ field grown roses available. Because these are grown in local soils and under open sun, they are dually acclimated…..well rooted & large primary canes

One of the biggest questions we get is why do my flowers or fruit drop?

Here are the top 3 reasons in order :
~ high pH
~lack of oxygen in the soil
~ lack of PGPR bacteria
~ lack of cytokinins

Maintaining consistent levels of cyktokenesis is important. The presence of oxygen & organic material and the right benficial bacterias / fungi. Thre are plenty e

Most nurseries won’t explain this because they just don’t know. They will tell you to apply more fertilizer….. just like Big Ag tells farmers. we always provide the option of amending the soil when we install so that your plants have what they need from the get go

If your trees are struggling or you want to start on the right foot, we can help you build your soil.

Plant it right the 1st time, give it the appropriate prune in late fall & this is what you get 😍

Our install division Apex Tropicals does an amazing job with water wise lawns installs utilizing only 245 gallons per 1000 sqft vs 623 to 1000 what is recommended by the industry leaders. I would say we are setting the mark as industry leaders. We know because we lawn with Irrigreen Precisions Sprinklers & Solid Rain
