'Tulips' Extending Their Display Time
Tulips are such a warm welcome to spring. Their vibrant colours make them a favourite of many gardeners; but how do you keep these beauties looking their best longer and extend their short growing season.
As most of us know tulips are a cool weather flower and as such they prefer cool damp springs to perform their best and to provide the longest flowering time. Once the weather gets hot the flowers quickly bloom and fade. While there is nothing you can do to

Ajax Backyard Makeover
This Ajax Home was treated to a backyard makeover prior to going on the market. It took only 3 days to go from drab to fab. Annual flowers are yet to be added as they come in season. For less than $2,000.00 this backyard is now a big sales feature for the home rather than a deterrent.
