It's time to put down pre-emergent to prevent warm-season weed seeds from germinating this Spring!
Rain and freezing temperatures are in the immediate forecast. If you haven't brought in your tender plants, you might want to do it now before the rain. Cover tender plants with cloth, then plastic, if you wish, but never plastic alone.

Protect plants, pipes and pets in anticipation of record low temperatures. We're going home to avoid icy roads today, but should be back tomorrow. Stay safe!
We are open! We're re-arranging after the freeze to make room for more plants coming in this week. Watch for our newsletter this week. We will give info on the effects this monumental freeze may have had on our plants, and what you can do about it. The best thing that we can tell you right now is to DO NOTHING! No pruning except for broken branches. Just be patient. It is not time to take action yet. As hard as it is, just WAIT.

Welcome to Backbone! We are unloading plants as fast as we can. Please bear with us, as we cannot answer the hundreds of phone calls requesting availability of plant material that we receive every day. We have added more parking as well as additional retail lines this year. We are sure that if you come out you will find what you are looking for and then some! We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
