APRIL FLOWER OF THE MONTH - Marigolds

GORGEOUS & FUNCTIONAL TOO!

Marigolds like full sun. They come in beautiful bright orange and yellow and bloom during the Spring, Summer and Fall. The reason why they are so popular is because they add that pop of color in your gardens for a long time. 

Did you know that there are some 50 species of Marigolds? African or American Marigolds are the tallest & grow 3 to 5 feet! French Marigolds are smaller and grow from 6 inches to 2 ft. tall. Their flowers are small and come in red, yellow, gold and orange. Their blooms are diverse: single bloom, carnation, crested bloom and Anemone bloom.

Enjoy these flowers throughout the warm weather.

After the blossoms have bloomed and die off, remove the dead heads for continuous blooming. Marigolds are easy to grow because they actually bloom better in poor soil so they need very little care. These flowers look great in pots and are ideal as companion plants in vegetable gardens. Their scent repels animals and insects and their root system repels microscopic worms and other pests for up to 3 years! 

We'll be getting our Annuals in next week and plan on carrying Marigolds at our Nursery in Plainfield. When you're ready to start planting, adding these beautiful yellow and orange flowers are a great place to start!

Landscaping Increases Value of Your Home

Are you selling your home in the near future? Sellers often overlook the importance of a home's curb appeal. Too often they are busy fixing up the inside that they forget to stage the outside. After all, that is the home buyer's first impression. You want it to be a good one. 

Research shows that in 2103, only 49% of home sellers realized that landscape improvements could help bring about a quick sale at a good return on their investment. 71% of home buyers feel that curb appeal is very important. If they don't like the way a property looks from the front, they often don't want to go inside.  

A landscaping investment could potentially increase the value of your home by 12-20%. Spending as little as 5% of your home's value on landscaping may get a return of as much as 150-200% of the amount you invested. These figures rival the return on a new kitchen or bathroom!  

Most people today look at the outside as an extension to their home's living space. There is a desire to spend more free time together outdoors. Making the outdoors inviting, with patios, beautiful gardens, etc. will not only be a joy while living in a home but will be a real asset when it's time to sell.

The biggest mistake that homeowners make is a piecemeal approach to their landscaping. Projects are done here and there without an overall, cohesive plan. Everything doesn't have to be done at once but a great overall design of your yard actually saves you from the pitfalls of a hodgepodge look that can give property a disorganized feel.

If you're thinking of selling in the short term, call us to stage the exterior of your home. Whether it's removing overgrown plants, replacing dead shrubs, taking out items obscuring windows, updating walkways or front stoops, Truesdale Landscaping can help.

Updating or adding to existing landscapes can make
all the difference so call us today - 908-834-2675.
