Clean and repair garden tools before storing for the winter.

Keep in mind Johnson's Nursery gift cards are great Christmas presents.

Colorful winter fruit is attractive to us as well as a wide variety of birds. Many clients specifically request plants, which will attract birds. We offer a plant list; Plants for the Birds on our web site as well as a brochure you are welcome to pickup at our sales office.

Avoid salt injury to your plants by salting only high-risk areas such as, stairs or slopes. Also avoid just pure salt; instead mix about 5% salt with other abrasive materials such as sand.

To prevent root damage caused by freezing and thawing, mulch perennial beds with branches cut from your Christmas tree after the holidays.



The less hectic winter schedule permits Johnson's Nursery designers to work on plans perhaps with a little more depth. Winter is a great time to meet with you at your site to develop a landscape plan. We will channel your needs and desires into reality, as well as explore new ideas. This allows you plenty of time to make decisions and to get on our schedule to be taken care of in an orderly fashion next spring.
               


Instead of cutting back all your perennials for winter, examine which one's have winter interest. Many perennials such as Autumn Joy sedum, coneflowers, and many others stand-up throughout the winter providing color, textures and bird interest. Ornamental grasses, stars of the autumn garden, add a lot of winter appeal as well.
