You’ve planned, purchased and planted now you wait for those trees, shrubs or perennials to pop.
There’s a garden adage that goes “The first year they sleep, the second year they creep and the third year they leap.”
Those roots need time to establish, stretch out their legs, so to speak, and develop deeper connections to the soil. So, when you’re waiting for your plantings to look like the ones in the magazine, have patience, the third year’s the charm!
