  • We head outdoors to talk landscapes, gardening & trees with Harper’s Nursery & Landscaping Company.
  • Jay talks about the incredible spring bloom….bougainvillea, oleander bushes.
  • Transitioning to warmer weather plants in the garden.
  • Frost danger should be over! Warm weather is coming…consider shade trees.
  • Critters are busy right now too with weather warming up.
  • Improper pruning robs you of enjoying colorful blooms every year….
  • Over-planting in spaces causes extra maintenance.
  • Don’t overreact to yellowing leaves.

Texts From Listeners:

  • What kind of vegetables can be grown in a pot?

Recommendation – Virtually any plant as long as the pot is big enough. They do need extra water because they have a tendancy to dry out faster than being in the ground.

  • They want suggestions on hong kong orchid care. They were just planted in a pot and now the leaves are yellowing and dropping?

Recommendation – They should do virtually nothing. The leaves are supposed to drop like they are, so just let it go dormant.

  • Planted a 5 gallon citrus tree 3 weeks ago. Should he fertilize it now or wait till the next recommended time of year?

Recommendation – Jay recommends using a root stimulater and a slow release fertilizer when you plant it, but nothing major. Don’t shock the system with a heavy dose.

Letters From Listeners:

Recommendation – They’re both quality contractors….go with the one you like best!

  • Eric – He had the stucco around his windows replaced. How long should he wait to paint?

Recommendation – Stucco isn’t waterproof. It takes about 4-6 weeks to completely dry out. There are tests you can take to make sure and Romey talks through the steps.

*Romey talks through several apps we discusses last week, including “Voice of Color” by PPG Pittsburg Paints.

We talk bees, bees & bees with Eric & Bailey Nisbet with Nisbet Family Farms in Phoenix!

  • The family history and how they got started.
  • Sugar versus natural honey.
  • Total number of hives they manage and how many bees are in each hive.
  • Different varieties of bees.
  • Misconceptions around “Africanized” Bees.
  • Current issues & problems around pollinating.

Caller:

  • Gary – Bees are getting in through holes in his stucco and wood pecker’s are making noise trying to get the honey?

Recommendation – He needs to remove the bees and seal up the openings they are living in. Ferimones are left by other bees, signaling other bees to live there. Wood peckers have been an ongoing issue and getting rid of the bees should get rid of the wood peckers.
