May is a favorite month of so many because it brings new life, new colors, sunshine, warmth, and promises for a wonderful summer. And May is time for anticipation. Anticipating your summer gardens, weed-free lawns, vacation or stay-cation plans, sports, picnics, holidays, parties, grilling menus and all the fun summer will bring.
But May is also a time for outdoor chores so let’s get our hands dirty. Whether panting veggies, flower gardens, decorative pots, or just keeping an attractive lawn, weeds can be a problem. There are literally thousands of weed species in existence and about 25-30 of them can be found even in well-maintained turf. This month Longenecker’s has items to help you feed your lawn and garden with nutrients they need, as well as products to get rid of weeds.
Scotts® Weed & Feed
Use Scotts® Weed & Feed on your lawn for thick green, beautiful turf. It’s on sale during May and guarantees to clear clover and dandelions out of your lawn.
Preen® Extended Control Weed Preventer
And oh those weeds! Why do they grow so much faster than our other plants? Well, one solution is to apply Preen® Extended Control Weed Preventer right now to stop weeds before they start. Get it on sale and apply immediately to stop/prevent weeds for 3 months.
