4 Steps to a Great Lawn

  

The Flower Bin Lawn Care program is built on the idea that regular fertilization, along with aeration and good mowing and watering practices, is key to maintaining a strong, healthy lawn. A healthy lawn is more likely to have fewer weeds and disease problems. The ferti•lome® brand of lawn and garden products is the mainstay of our program and includes four steps designed to keep your lawn healthy throughout the growing season.  

  

When you purchase all four bags of The Flower Bin Lawn Care program at once, you will save 20% of the cost of the program and you will continue to save 20% on every ferti•lome® product you purchase throughout the year, including a wide selection of garden fertilizers, insect and weed controls. Additionally, you’ll have the satisfaction of knowing you are applying the right product at the right time of the season, when it will benefit your lawn the most.  

  

The program begins with Step 1, ferti•lome’s® For All Seasons II fertilizer and weed preventer. One of the most effective ways to control weeds in your lawn is to prevent them from showing up in the first place and this product works to keep crabgrass and other weed seeds from germinating. Step 1 is applied between mid-March and mid-April.  

  

Step 2: ferti•lome’s® Weed-Out Plus Lawn Fertilizer. This product works to control weeds you can see. It’s called a post-emergent. This is the product to apply for dandelions, mallow, and other weeds you can see in your lawn. Weed-Out Plus also feeds your lawn and is applied mid-May to early June.   

  

Step 3: ferti•lome’s® Lawn Food Plus Iron. Applied in early August, right when your lawn needs nitrogen and iron the most.  

  

Step 4: ferti•lome’s® Winterizer. Applied in October, when your grass is storing up energy for the winter season ahead.  With ferti-lome Winterizer your lawn will green up faster the following spring.
