VIDEO: Planting Native Rhododendrons with Summer Rayne Oakes???

/in , , ,

In this informative video, Summer Rayne Oakes from Flock Finger Lakes discusses the significance of reintroducing native plants into our green spaces. She focuses on planting native rhododendrons and shares valuable tips on how to create the ideal growing conditions for these beautiful plants.

Summer emphasizes the importance of soil preparation when planting rhododendrons. To ensure the soil has the proper pH level, she recommends using Espoma Organic Soil Acidifier. This product helps to amend and lower the pH of native soil, creating a more suitable environment for acid-loving plants like rhododendrons.

In addition to adjusting the soil pH, Summer suggests improving soil structure by applying Espoma Organic Land & Sea Gourmet Compost. This compost is rich in nutrients and organic matter, which helps to promote healthy root growth and overall plant vitality.

By following Summer’s expert advice and using these high-quality Espoma Organic products, gardeners can successfully plant and cultivate native rhododendrons. Reintroducing native plants not only adds beauty to our gardens but also supports local ecosystems and biodiversity.

VIDEO: How to Care for Kumquat & Limequat trees ??with Summer Rayne Oakes

/in , , ,

Join Summer Rayne Oakes of Homestead Brooklyn as she guides us through the process of repotting and nurturing Kumquat and Limequat trees.

A Kumquat is a delightful orange-like fruit indigenous to Southeast Asia. Unlike many fruits, the rind of a kumquat is entirely edible and is where most of the fruit’s nutrients are packed. On the other hand, a Limequat is an intriguing hybrid of the Kumquat and Key lime, inheriting attributes from both.

For the optimal growing medium, Summer uses a mix of Espoma Organic Potting Soil and Espoma Organic Perlite, ensuring her trees get the best start.
