Planting

SJN offers full planting services for all plants purchased at our garden center with a 6 month guarantee.

  • The rate is 75% of the cost of the plant material being planted in the Farmington city limits.
  • There will be additional charges for any planting outside the city limits.
  • You must purchase at least $100 and plant material to be planted at this fee.
  • There will be a $75 minimum charge for anything under $100 value.

Fees include:

  • Organic compost that includes organic nutrients for soil development.
  • Root drench, an all natural rooting inoculate that includes beneficial mycorrhiza (beneficial fungus), and beneficial bacteria. Both enhance nutrient uptake disease control and much more.

Guarantee

The health and well-being of SJN plants is guaranteed at the time of purchase. If plants are planted by our staff, there is a 6 month guarantee on labor and plants (most problems with a new planting will show up in the first month). We require that you give us a call as soon as you notice any problems with your plants, as we can usually fix the problem before it becomes fatal. We are not responsible for environmental concerns. Plants must be accompanied by a receipt. There are no guarantees on past due accounts. Plants must be brought back to the Garden Center for inspection before replacement or credit is given. If the plant is not available and a suitable replacement cannot be made, a store credit will be issued. Perennial and annual plants are not covered by this guarantee.

Soil Testing

Cost: $10

Let’s face it.  Gardening without testing your soil before you start is like driving somewhere you have never been without a road map! A soil test is a simple way to eliminate the guess work of additives you need to add for plants in your area.

SJN will test for:

  • pH (acidity/alkalinity) which is directly related to a plants ability to absorb nurtrients
  • Nitrogen which is necessary for green leafy growth
  • Phosphate which is necessary for root growth, flowering, and fruiting
  • Potassium (commonly called potash is often dubbed “the regulator” because it activates more than 60 enzyme processes) which is necessary for disease resistance, and over all plant strength and growth

Dig and bring 3-4 soil samples at 3-4” deep mixed in a zip bag (if you bring in several samples label your bags; different plantings may require different soil conditions).

It is hard to have maximum garden success when you don’t understand your soils needs.

Re-Potting

We know how busy you are!

Houseplants:

Sooner or later, re-potting houseplants becomes necessary, and winter is a great time to do it!

Plants should be moved into larger containers as they grow. Larger pots allow for more soil to nourish the root systems. Unless more space is provided for the plant’s roots, they become root bound. That is, the roots of the plant become cramped and form a tightly packed mass that inhibits growth.

  • You purchase the plant, pot and soil, and we will plant it up for FREE.
  • If you have a houseplant that needs to be repotted bring it in and purchase a new pot and soil, and we will repot it for FREE.
  • Can’t leave the house?  Don’t worry we can come to you and do it for a fee.

Color pots:

We can help you design and build spectacular planters. We help you choose plants that that will be the correct size for the pot when they are mature, and plants that thrive in similar growing conditions (i.e. lighting and moisture requirements).  However, that is not the only important thing.  Planters look best when you combine plants with different growing habits.

The recipe: Thrillers, Fillers, Spillers

Thrillers tend to be upright tall plants, fillers are more bushy, and you finish the planter off with your spillers which trail over the pot.

  • Purchase the plants, pot and soil, and we will plant it up for FREE.
  • Bring your pot in from home, purchase the plants and soil, and we will plant it for FREE.
  • Don’t have time?  We can come to you for a fee.

Foil Gift Wrapping

Plants purchased at SJN are eligible to be foil wrapped. Let us add a little personality to the plant container by cover it in decorative foil.

Great idea for holidays, birthdays, funerals, housewarming gifts, etc!

Pond Maintenance

SJN water features are based on a natural ecosystem.  In nature spring run-off flushes and cleans out ponds. In a self-contained system, a spring clean out is necessary to replicate what nature does.  This process can take 5-8 hours depending on size of pond.

SJN will:

  • Drain pond (fish will be placed in aerated tank)
  • Power wash rocks and remove sludge
  • Prune and Fertilize all pond plants
  • Check liner integrity
  • Refill pond
  • Dechlorinate
  • Inoculate pond with beneficial bacteria
  • Maintain pump (clean, check oil, etc.)
