In horticulture, the early protection of young trees is essential for long-term success. Just like how seedlings need nurturing to take root, young trees need safeguarding to withstand the challenges they’ll face in their early stages of growth. That’s where tree guards come in. They play an essential role in protecting trees from various threats, giving them the best chance to establish themselves and thrive.

In this blog, we’ll explore why tree guards matter, dive into the different types available, and offer expert tips on how to use them effectively. Whether you’re a landscaper, nursery owner, or grounds manager, this guide will help you make informed decisions and protect your trees for the long haul.

Fall is such an underrated season for gardening, don’t you think? The crisp air, the colours changing, and let’s not forget the chance to grow those cool-season veggies, vibrant mums, and hearty herbs. But if you want your garden to flourish through the chillier months, there’s one thing that often doesn’t get enough attention: the growing medium.

Your plants might be hearty, but the soil or whatever growing medium you use, plays a critical role in how well they handle the autumn conditions. The right mix can give your plants the nutrients they need, help them deal with excess moisture, and keep them cozy as the temperatures dip. So, let’s break down how to choose the best growing medium for fall plants, making sure you’re ready to keep your garden thriving.
