Seasonal Tips

+Spring
Sharpen Your Tools - Prune shrubbery and perennials to remove winter damage, fertilize with 100% organic (3-2-7), brand name "Fertrell", or chemical blend (6-8-10), both available at the retail center of Mariposa Nursery (see 'links' page)...
+Summer
Easy on the Water - With heavy summer rains, be careful not to over-water. Florida native plants adapt especially well to our naturally occurring weather patterns. Be sure your fertilizer is not high in nitrogen, fertilize in July...
+Fall
Great Deals - Fall is a good time to buy from nurseries because they have terrific sales. Plant cool weather annuals such as Impatiens, Begonias, Petunias and Geraniums. Do not mulch heavily around annuals, no mulch is ideal...
+Winter
Bundle Up - Cover any shrubs that are vulnerable to frost or freezing temperatures. Many Florida native plants may show damage on the top, or may even freeze to the ground but will recover nicely from the root line. Ixora, Croton, Dwarf Firebush, Firespike and other similar plants will benefit if covered with protective cloth, available at Mariposa Nursery retail center.
