CONSERVATORY CORNER
REMINDER! MOVING INDOOR PLANTS OUTSIDE FOR THE SUMMER?
Most indoor plants will thrive when moved outside during the summer months. As they put on new growth their nutritional needs increase and they may be vulnerable to insects. Insect Control plus Fertilizer plant spikes are a great preventative insecticide working systemically to combat invasions of aphids, mealybugs and scale. No spraying, mixing or messy chemicals. The easy to use spikes simply push into the soil and give you up to 8 weeks of fertilizer and insect protection (10 tablets per card). ONLY $9.99!
