Have you looked out over your yard and wondered, "What should I plant here," or, "How do I begin to re-design my landscaping?" Would you like the colorful casualness of an English scatter garden, or the serenity of a well-manicured Japanese tea garden, but don't know if these ideas are feasible?

Perhaps you are unsure whether azaleas need sun or shade, or why your citrus is not doing well. Wegman’s Consulting Service has been designed to answer these questions and more.

Wegman's has a staff of experts led by Ed Holm, our resident consultant for ornamental horticulture, who will come to your home for a personal consultation. Mr. Ed will spend time evaluating your landscape needs and give you suggestions to make the kind of garden setting you have dreamed of a reality.

The service can range from giving a suggestion for an entire landscape including a sketch with plant suggestions, to helping with a diagnosing a "sick" plant. The cost of a consultation is $75.00 per hour. The Consultation Service is available by calling Wegman's at 650-368-5908 and leaving a message for Mr. Ed to set up an appointment with you.

Wegman’s has a history of commitment, quality, and customer service. The additional benefit of using Wegman’s Consulting Service is that you can come into the nursery and look at the suggested plants. Also, we are able to order plants if they are not in our vast inventory so that your garden will be as unique and personal as you are!

You are never too old to receive an Easter Basket! What you put in it just is a little bit different!

Our Houseplant and Giftware department is blooming with spring colors. Give an Easter Lily, an azalea, an orchid or a lace-cap hydrangea to someone to say Happy Easter, Happy Spring! We have the perfect pottery to place your plant in for the perfect presentation. Wegman’s also has Isabel Bloom sculptures for spring.

Come in and we will help you design a unique basket for the Easter Bunny to deliver.

There is no better way to say Happy Spring than the gift of a rose. Roses are in bloom at Wegman's and they make a wonderful gift that will be enjoyed for years to come. Wegman's has a wide selection of colors and varieties. Come and choose one that will complement the roses you already have in your garden—or begin a new tradition!

Plant your roses where they will receive at least 6 hours of sunlight. Roses prefer slightly acidic soils, best achieved by using acidic soil amendments when planting, and mulching yearly. To plant, dig a hole about 2 feet wide and deep and incorporate one-third Nurseryman’s Rose Planting Mix or Gold Rush or Bumper Crop with your native soil; then add Master Nursery Master Start to this soil. Give regular, deep root watering. To fertilize use Master Nursery Rose & Flower Food or Dr. Earth Rose & Flower Fertilizer monthly from February to September to supply nutrients for developing roots and stems.

Spring is in full bloom in our Bedding Department. There is an incredible selection of 4 inch size perennials for both sun and shade. The 4 inch size is perfect for planting to get a jump start on color for your garden. Everything you need to plant hanging baskets, containers, window boxes and your flower beds is available and waiting for you.

Why make another stop? Wegman’s now carries universal Weed Whacker Trimmer Line. The high impact, high wear commercial grade trimmer line is available in 2 sizes:

.095 diameter, 285 feet for $13.99
.080 diameter, 400 feet for $13.99

Paula Allen is a CCN Pro and one of Wegman’s outdoor plant experts. Paula works with perennials and shrubs. Paula has made your plant selection process easier by arranging our outdoor section by color. Currently all the pink flowering plants are together, the yellow flowering, white flowering and so on. By displaying the plants in the nursery in this manner we hope that designing the palette of your garden will be just that much easier and fun! You will also be introduced to textures and type of plants that perhaps you had not considered. Just another idea from the Wegman Experts.
