- The Groundhog saw his shadow, "Six more weeks of winter". But did you know that a groundhog's prediction is accurate only 37% of the time? Do you think I would tell you that stat if he did not see his shadow? I'd take the early spring and cross my fingers!
- Place special orders of the seeds that you need so you will have exactly what you want in your garden this year.
- Did you know that Humber sells past months magazines for only $1.00? The magazines don't have any covers on them, but all the info inside them is timeless. Great ideas for garden planning! You can find our dollar magazines in our book store.
- Plan your garden by using graph paper. Plot out your existing yard, make a wish list and then fill in the blanks. Too much work? Click here for our Landscape Services and see how we can help you achieve your Landscape Dreams.
- Cut down on the amount of water you give your indoor plants. During the winter months, most house plants require less watering. Plants will benefit with increased humidity, so add a pebble or humidity tray under your potted plants.
- Don't fertilize young seedlings. Wait until the 'True Leaves' (the 2nd set of leaves) have appeared and then fertilize with Plant Prods 10-52-10 Plant Starter. Available at Humber for $10.99 for 500g. Check out our Green Thumb Guide here.
- Clean out outdoor containers and urns that you will be using this season.

We are receiving daily shipments of hard goods. So if you missed out last year on getting that particular birdbath, statue or bench, now may be the time to visit Humber to see what's new!
