Expert Advice from Our
Knowledgeable Staff

There are three key advantages that you gain when you come to Arber Greenhouses: Service, Quality and Selection. These elements have been the cornerstone of our business. We take pride in knowing that you will be provided with the knowledge and quality necessary to enjoy a successful, gardening experience.

We endeavour to hire people with horticultural knowledge who enjoy working and communicating with customers. Our staff can provide advice on a variety of topics.

Here are some tips to help you maintain a better garden.

Starting Your Garden Clean-Up

When the snow has melted in your gardens it is a good time to go out and start an initial clean-up by clearing debris which might have blown into your garden over the winter.  As soon as the weather warms we should remove any dead plant foliage that remains from the previous year.

Drainage

Dig extra amounts of organic matter into your garden soil to aid in drainage. Poor drainage often leads to diseases and poor plant growth.









 

 

Daffodils and Tulips

Allow Daffodils and Tulips to dry out before you cut them back. This allows them to store up nutrition in the bulbs for next year's flower production. 

Spring Flowering Shrubs

Spring-flowering shrubs bloom on the previous year's wood. Be sure to trim immediately after the blooms fade. Next year's buds will form this year and you should trim the branches before the buds start to form.

Caring for your Poinsettia

  • Place your plant in indirect sun for 6 - 7 hours a day.
     

  • Keep your poinsettia away from heat sources and do not place it near cold drafts.
     

  • Ideal temperature is 68 - 70 degrees during the day.
     

  • Water the plant as the soil starts to dry.
     

  • Always cover/protect your plant when transporting in cold weather.
     

  • Do not allow your plant to dry out.
