OSTEOSPERMUM 'VOLTAGE YELLOW'

A vibrant shade, called tangerine tango, has been identified as the color of the year by Pantone, a global authority on color and provider of professional color standards to design industries. Set your garden ablaze with the season’s hottest color: ORANGE!

From pottery to annuals, perennials and shrubs, this color will light up your garden this spring and summer.

Annuals provide exciting color in the spring when gardeners are ready for the first signs of life in their garden. Here in Hampton Roads, our average last frost date is April 15, which can vary from the Oceanfront (April 1) to Williamsburg (April 25).

We love these early spring annuals, as they are a somewhat safe bet for the early spring weather fluctuations. We recommend any of these right now:

BLUEBERRIES

The two most important things you can do for your established lawn in early spring is to apply:

Pre-Emergent

Post Emergent
A post emergent will rid your lawn of cool season weeds that are actively growing and getting ready to lay seed.
