When is our last frost/first frost dates?

“Last frost of Spring occurs between March 16-31 First frost of Fall occurs between November 11-20 Both of these are averages so killing frosts may occur outside of these ranges. “

How do I keep rabbits out of my plants?

There are a number of things you can do to help discourage these tenacious pests, some things we suggest: Plant resistant plants such as Dusty Miller, Lantana, Alyssum, Geraniums or Snapdragons, while they are not 100% immune to rabbits they do not prefer to eat these plants and will avoid them as much as possible. Planting annuals in taller containers; especially for pansy plantings which rabbits love, this can be a big help. Make sure pots are tall enough that a rabbit on its hind legs will be unable to reach, 16” or taller seems to work well. Repellents such as Rabbit Scram can help to keep them out without harming your plants, this needs to be applied at regular intervals and especially after a heavy rain. While probably not the most attractive option fencing beds with chicken wire buried 6” below soil and at least 2’ above will help exclude them from gardens.

What is the best time to plant trees and shrubs?

Fall is widely considered the best time to plant hardy shrubs and trees, this gives them the longest amount of time to develop a strong root system before their first Summer.

When should I fertilize my lawn?

Like many things in our gardens this will vary a little season to season, but typically after our last frost in the Spring is the time to start. You should notice grass beginning to green back up from the dormant season that will signal time to apply, this can occur from around mid-March to early April depending on the year. Another application should be made 60 – 90 days after that and then again in September to October to finish out the season.

When should I apply pre-emergents to my lawn?

Pre-emergents are typically applied twice a year in our part of Texas, first application is around mid-February and the Fall application is typically around the first week in September. Weather depending there is some flexibility with these dates but remember with pre-emergents a week too early is better than even a day late.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I walked in to Calloway’s needing information on fertilizer for my house plants and Victor took so much time explaining everything I needed to know. He made several recommendations based on price point and based on my need. He walked me through the dilutions and made supplemental recommendations if needed and he made sure I fully understood the directions. After all of that he said I’d be welcome to come back with plant pictures so he could better help me navigate issues if these recommendations did not work. He was encouraging, patient and spent a lot of time educating me. It’s so very obvious how passionate he is about what he does!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. An extremely well-organized nursery with multifarious plants and trees arranged by type and size. It looks like an exotic oasis outback and the inside is adorned with colorful yard art. Great employees with an abundance of experience and knowledge to be able to answer any questions that anyone may have. Not only do they have a wide array of plants and trees, but they also have a great many pots of all different shapes and sizes. If you normally go to a mega-store or specific chain of the nursery.to do your business then I would suggest you stop going to those places ave give Calloway’s Nursery a chance at earning your business. They'll do so and you won't feel anything but the happiness that you gave them a chance. Your trees, flowers, and plants will also thank you by blooming extra-large year after year!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Absolutely spectacular service! Thank you so much to Patel, who helped me find one of my bucket list plants, a massive BEAUTIFUL mounted staghorn fern! I had no idea this gem was there and without his help, I would have missed it entirely! The plant itself is healthy and lush, I'm so excited to have this staghorn as a statement piece in my home for years to come.
