Location
Vines will require an area that will have at least a half day or more direct sunlight. The plant depending on the variety will grow upright six to twelve feet. Although it can only grow as tall as the trellis, arbor or support that you have given it. For example, if your trellis is eight feet tall and the vine you choose grows to twelve feet, it would simply hang over and grow down the other side.
Soil Preparation
Clematis and vines need a moist, well-drained soil. Prepare your hole at least one foot deep and mix 50% peat moss or well-rotted manure. Backfill hole with the amended soil and plant the vines so the top of the root ball is just below the ground level burying the first set of eyes. The plant should be mulched and kept moist, not wet, especially during the first growing season. Fertilize every four weeks during the growing season with a well-balanced liquid fertilizer.
Support
The main stem of the clematis or vines must have a firm support, otherwise damage may occur through wind. As the newly planted vine produces new growth this should be carefully trained and tied into position.

Soil and Preparation
Peonies prefer well-draining, humus-rich moist soil. Amend heavy or very sandy soil with compost. Additionally, 1 cup of bonemeal can be used to amend the soil prior to planting. Choose a location in full sun, but one that provides ample growing room along with protection from strong winds.
Planting
Dig a a hole large enough to accommodate the roots and set the root so the eyes face upward. Fill in the hole, making sure to keep the peony's eyes/buds not deeper than 2" below the soil line. Water thoroughly to settle the soil around the roots.
Fertilization During Growing
They do not require fertilization other than a yearly addition of compost unless a soil test shows a deficiency in nutrients.
Cutting Guidelines
Years 1 & 2: Do not cut any blooms. Dis-budding is recommended to encourage root growth and overall plant development.
Year 3: For 2/3 eye roots - Cut 1/3 of the total blooms; For 3/5 eye roots - Cut 50% of the blooms
Year 4: Cut 70% of the total blooms

Planting:
Plant bareroot phlox in the spring in loose soil deep enough that the crown is at the soil line. Adding compost and/or a granular fertilizer at this time is also beneficial. Once roots are covered in soil, water well.
Soil:
Prefers average to moist but well-drained soil (to prevent root rot). Also needs plenty of air circulation to prevent powdery mildew. Benefits from being cut to the ground before winter to prevent any powdery mildew infection carrying over to the next year.
Sun:
Prefers full sun to part shade.

Planting Strawberries Outdoors
Strawberries are best planted in a sunny location with fertile, well-drained soil. Strawberries will tolerate semi-shade, however, yield will be less than those grown in full sun. Be careful about where you plant. If standing water remains on the site after a light rain, you may encounter root-rot problems. The site you select must be well drained. Improve your soil with lots of organic matter prior to planting and growing.
For growing in the ground, plant strawberries 18" apart and in rows 30" apart. Dig a hole large enough to accommodate the roots of the plant.
If planting strawberry runners, spread the roots out in the hole and make sure the crown of the plant is resting at soil level. Pot grown plants should be planted so the top of the compost is level with the soil surface. Planting too deeply can cause the plants to rot, and planting with the crown too high above the soil surface can cause the plants to dry out and die. Firm in well and water thoroughly. To avoid flowering and fruiting stress on young plants, flower buds should be removed in the first year. Removal of flowers will allow the plants to direct their energy toward establishing a root system and developing a healthy, large leaf canopy to fuel next year’s crop.
Watering
Irrigate overhead daily for first two weeks; thereafter, keep tops dry, irrigating by drip or sub-irrigation.
Growing in Hanging Baskets and Containers
Strawberry plants grow very well in pots, jars, and baskets. It's best to use a well-aerated organic plant mix. Incorporating water-retaining granules and appropriate slow release fertilizer is recommended prior to planting. Check daily and water if the top half-inch of soil/compost medium feels dry.
Recommended planting:
5 plants in a 10" basket
3 plants in a 6" basket
Top dress with slow release fertilizer upon sale
4 INCH POTS:
2 plants per pot for faster finish time and best presentation
GALLON CONTAINERS:
3 plants per container
CELL PAKS:
806’s, 606’s, 4-paks or pony-paks
Fertlization:
Any balanced mix high in nitrogen or through water (but not both). A 10-10-10 or 15-15-15 fertilizer is recommended.
