Mistakes to avoid when buying plants from a nursery

If you are an avid gardener, you probably look forward to visiting a garden nursery every now and then. To help you take the right decisions and get the most out of your visit, we’ve compiled a list of mistakes you should avoid at a plant nursery:

• Don’t shop just for the best flowers. Buying leaves or foliage as well can help you maintain the aesthetic appeal of your flowering plant and garden for the rest of the year.
• Don’t purchase plants from a nursery before inspecting them. If the staff members are helpful and share knowledge about plants and trees, instead of pushing products your way, then you are off to a good start.
• Don’t go for plants which are already in full bloom as they will start wilting once they are placed in the soil of your garden. Instead, opt for healthy, unwilted and budding plants which will reach their peak in your garden.
