FEED ME SEYMOUR! This guy look familiar?

Did you know that plants aren't just pretty flowers and colorful leaves? There are also carnivorous plants. These plants capture and digest insects and other animals by means of ingenious pitfalls and traps. Using enzymes and bacteria they digest their prey through a process of chemical breakdown.

Now that's some scary plants! Happy Halloween everyone!

As the old saying goes, work in the garden never ends. While there are the obvious things that one notices while looking through their property, the plants, the trees and the turf, there are many things beyond the plant material that help make the overall landscape a full-functioning system. One of those things is drainage. Most people have had some kind of drainage issue at their property, which can run the gamut from minor pooling water to full-blown flooding.

Proper drainage systems can prevent water issues by making sure water drains to the right places. Water that over-accumulates on your property may cause stress to both plants and turf, and even your home itself. Correctly addressing drainage issues now can save you a lot of headaches in the future, as poor drainage tends to get worse over time.

Now is a good time to review your drainage issues and potential drainage needs. If you're interested in finding out more, please get in touch.

I'm sure you are familiar with butterfly gardens, native gardens, rain gardens, sensory gardens, conifer gardens, but have you ever heard of a moon garden? 🌚

A moon garden is a garden that is meant to be viewed and enjoyed at night by the light of the moon. Moon garden designs typically include plants that are white, silver or lightly colored and some plants even bloom at night offering an enjoyable sweet fragrance in the evening. Plants are picked to reflect the light of the moon and illuminate the landscape.

Take a stroll tonight through your garden on this full moon. Maybe you too would like to start a moon garden. 🌝

Autumn is traditionally a season of letting things go - as sad as it may be to say goodbye to summer. It can also be a season of renewal and a time to look forward to new things. Something we look forward to at Root&Stem is planting fall bulbs to keep us excited and hopeful for a colorful spring.

Check out some of our favorites.
