In the News....

Winter Updates:

It is now time to "put your hay in the barn", figuratively that is, for all summer projects. Where bushes or shrubs need to be cut back, or coppiced, now is the time. Winter hardening has taken place, and dormancy set in (after that run of cold (brrrrrr) weather. Coppicing (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coppicing) is a traditional method for cutting woody vegetation down at the base of the stem. This promotes the healthy growth of multiple stems the subsequent growing season. Another timely task is to plan any spring planting projects. Sketch out your garden improvements, and let Natresco do the rest! We will provide a detailed layout with cost estimates for a variety of plantings. Also good winter time use, is to consider where you want to add wildlife feeders - watch the animals from a cosy nook inside your house. Notice where they feed (birds and squirrels) and consider adding feeders and watering stations throughout your gardens.

For those color nuts among you, Natresco has a color designer for residential gardens. We can assist in ensruing that your garden foliage is always colorful and that it meets your expectations, be it for a summer barbeque or summer wedding!

Good luck and happy runimating - spring is just around the corner.
