By Janet Barnes


You need to rely on a nursery if you want to start gardening. There are a couple of considerations that should be made to ensure that one gets the right plants and is ready to plant them. In that case, below are aspects on how to choose Ohio garden centers to ponder on.

Know the best time to plant. Most people love gardening during the spring season. Therefore, you need to start looking for a suitable place to purchase your flowers or plant during the onset of the winter season. One can even purchase the transplants at an affordable price since the prices tend to shoot during the planting season due to high demand.

Compare different nurseries before you pick one. The information posted about a given store is not enough to make you decide to rely on it. In that case, you should plan to personally visit it to acknowledge detailed aspects which will help you achieve your expectations. The considerations that one should make includes evaluating the condition of plants and learning a few aspects of them from the dealer.

Consider a nursery which is near. There are high chances of similarity between weather condition and soil composition of a nearby nursery and your residence. So, deciding to purchase a plant from such nursery will offer a good opportunity to your plant to grow healthy. Apart from that, you will find it easy to transport them especially if you have purchased several transplants.

Be careful with the condition of the transplants. You have to check a few aspects in a transplant to determine whether they are suitable enough. First, they should have strong stems which are healthy. Also, their twigs and leaves should look healthy and should have buds as well. Choosing flowers at their budding stage is reasonable compared with those which have started to flower.

Make sure that your garden is ready for planting. You are expected to have prepared your garden before you decide to purchase the transplant. Ensure that the spacing of your garden holes is enough to allow growth of the plants to their fullest potential. Choose a place which has enough shade to avoid direct sunlight contact, has fertile soil and it is out of reach of livestock.

Use the right transplanting process. The plants are supposed to be planted immediately after they are bought from the nursery. Carefully remove the polythene paper which has covered the base of the plant to avoid damaging the roots. If you do not plan to plant them immediately, place them in a shade and water them until you find it suitable to plant them.

Take note of your expenses. You should have a budget that covers all the expenses you will make in this considerations. Make sure that the amount is enough to purchase quality plants and reliable products needed in planting them. Even so, look for different ways you can spare your expenses and still achieve your expectations.
