Harry’s Gardening tips

   We have heard from many customers in the past that they have continually had a problem with creeping charlie, thistle, and wild violets. This year we have a new product for you to try called Turflon Ester. It contains a very strong herbicide called triclopr that is more effective on these hard to kill weeds than anything else out right now. Remember, though, Turflon Ester is still a post-emergent herbicide and will only kill what is up any growing right now. If you treat your lawn with this product right now you may have to treat your lawn again in late May to get the weeds that germinated late.

   If you have any questions about this product please feel free to stop in or call and one of our helpful associates will be happy to assist you.
