JUST PLANT SOMETHING

A slogan you will be seeing and hearing a lot about in the coming weeks,”Just Plant Something“. The Arizona Nursery Association has developed a campaign to promote the benefit of plants, especially those grown and sold here in Arizona.We hope over the next months and years that the tag line “just plant something” will be to the plant and gardening industry what “got milk” and “beef, it’s what’s for dinner” has been to dairy and beef producers. So remember if you’re tired of those high utility bills-just plant something. If you don’t like the view of the motor home in your neighbor’s side yard-just plant something. You’d like to spend more time outside by the pool,but it’s not that appealing-just plant something……..you’ll get the idea, we hope!!

Is Your Patio Looking Pooped?
patio options A number of folks have been in the last few days with a common theme-looking for a couple of things to spruce up the patio or entry for a party, or they’ve been gone on vacation and things didn’t do well while away, or they’re just tired of the summer weary look all around them and need to freshen up! These last few weeks of Summer can be a little frustrating that way-you can see the light at the end of the tunnel (fall flower selections will be here in a few weeks) but you’d like to do something now. What can you do that will look good for at least a few weeks and still have some value later on. We’ve got some great ideas. How about Hibiscus, Torch Glow Bougainvillea, Sweet Potato Vine, Katie Ruellia, Hearts and Flowers, Purple Heart, or a combination of all of the above. They are all proven hot weather performers, will either bloom or provide dramatic foliage color, and you can use them in other places in the garden this fall or work your fall geraniums or bedding plants right in with them. You can plant and enjoy them now in a container or a planting area and continue to enjoy them in those same or different areas come Fall-Just Plant Something!!

DOUBLE LOYALTY POINT TIME RUNNING DOWN
sweet potato vine Just a reminder that double loyalty points or “punches” ends on Labor Day. That is sneaking up on us and is only a little over 2 weeks away! In case you’re not familiar with our loyalty program: you receive a punch for every $40 in purchases ( 2 punches from Memorial Day till Labor Day). When you get 10 punches you receive a $40 gift card to spend at Harper’s. So hurry in- new garden seeds have arrived, it is time to start fertilizing, I’ll bet you have some weeds to kill, and don’t forget about those great patio plant ideas-Just Plant Something and get double punches for two more weeks!!

If you’re ready to plant and think it is still too hot, have no fear-WE GUARANTEE OUR PLANTS!! If you purchase the necessary planting amendments or have us plant for your, your one gallon and larger plants are guaranteed for their normal LIFE expectancy! So go forth boldly and “just plant something” or let us plant something for you-WE GUARANTEE YOU’LL LOVE IT!!!

Sincerely,

The Harper Boys

It’s Not Even A Dry Heat Is It?
Subscribe to Our Newsletter!
As We Continue To Celebrate Our 66th Anniversary This Month:

  • June has surprised us with just a handful of 100 degree days so far
  • We are seeing garden pests normally associated with early spring. Aphids,caterpillars,mites,etc. Be sure to check your garden regularly
  • Fruit and vegetable ripening is somewhat delayed by the cooler weather, but as it does be sure to protect from birds. Netting is the most effective method
  • Summer lawns are a bit slow to green up and the transition from winter to summer lawns is slow. Be sure to mow short, dethatch, and fertilize to speed up the transition.
  • Those dead spots may be poor sprinkler coverage or Pearl Scale. Bring a sample in to us including roots for diagnosis of pearl scale. Check sprinkler heads for coverage. I know from personal experience i generally have to replace a nozzle or two every year.
  • Be sure to paint the trunks of new trees, especially citrus and fruit trees, and those that were pruned severely due to freeze damage. Sun burn will occur and can damage or kill those trees.Go Natural tree paint is my first choice.
  • The most cost effective way to save on cooling bills is by shading windows-Plant A Tree!, How bout planting a tree for Father’s day!
  • Now is the time to convert from grass to xeriscape. Summer is the most effective time to kill grasses as it is actively growing. Harpers can come out and give you a FREE evaluation on how you can change the look of your landscape!

Weekly Landscape Tip:xeriscape

How have you water bills been this summer? I have actually had one month that it exceeded my electric bill! Wow! If you have ever considered converting from turf to xeriscape or low water use landscaping, August and September might actually be the best months to do it. The most difficult part of the process is killing  the existing grass. It can only be done effectively when it is most actively growing.The late summer and early fall months are the most active for bermudagrasses plus as we get into September the grass starts trying to store up nutrients for winter and that makes the uptake of herbicides even more effective.  The use of “glyphosate”,Hi Yield Killzall  type herbicides is a must as they kill the entire plant, root and all. Don’t try to kill the grass by just not watering it. It doesn’t work- and as soon as it rains or you water any of the new plants, you’ll have bermudagrass coming up.  If we can be of any help with any phase of your “conversion” experience-please let us know! Jerry Harper and his team have done many- of all shapes,sizes,and budgets. Give Jerry a call 602 659 5994 to set up a time for a FREE on site evaluation.
 

Remember to join us every Saturday at 8am on 92.3 fm KTAR for the Garden Segment of Rosie on the House. You can call in and ask a question or just join in on the fun!

Labor Day Is Just Around The Corner

August 26, 2009 By Jay Harper

Time Running Out To Use Or Earn Double Points!!
August is almost gone-hurray!!! But remember:.
Labor Day is the last day you can earn double points on you Harper’s loyalty card
Labor Day is also the last day in which you may use the amount of points you have saved up towards a 50% discount
I know for a fact that fall is just around the corner. We have received our new shipment of fall flower and vegetable seeds. Our vegetable seedlings are up and being transplanted, meaning we will have them ready to sell around Labor Day. Geraniums and mums are in the Greenhouses growing as we speak! Be sure you are getting your beds and soil prepared so you’ll be ready when these plants are!
We have FREE admission coupons for the upcoming Home and Building Expo. We will have a booth there with our Rosie On The House partners-stop by and say hello-especially since you’ll have come by either Harper’s locations to get your soil prepared and picked up a free admission coupon!
Sincerely, The Harper Boys
