Bonide preemergent organic
weed control
1
• No mixing, ready to spray.
• Made from all natural corn gluten.
• Use on lawns and gardens.
• Use on vegetable gadens.
• Will not harm desirable plants.
These weeds are very difficult to
kill with ordinary weed killers:
2
• Creeping Charlie
• Ground Ivy
• Oxalis
• Purslane
• Pennywort
• Wild Violet
For these truly tough weeds, we
recommend: Bonide Weed
Beater Ultra Lawn Weed Killer. Not sure
which weeds are in your lawn? We can help. Bring
in a sample!
Want to minimize the use of
pesticides and herbicides on your
property? We can help. Insects, disease
5
and weeds are often the symptom of a problem not the actual problem. We can help you solve the
larger problem. Stop by the garden center.
Winter de-icing can play havoc
with your lawn & garden.
9
Apply Gypsum now to
minimize the damage. Bring
in a sample. We will help to
diagnose the problem. (A
good sample has both a
damaged and healthy section
- call for details).
Time to fertilize spring
flowering bulbs.
12
2015
For a great lawn and garden,
apply compost now! Compost
23
builds your soil with
all-important beneficial
microbes that are essential to
plant health. We recommend
Encap Lawn and Garden
Compost.
For bigger, more
abundant blooms, we suggest
Bulb Food, this
product loosens & improves the
soil.
Lesser celandine (aka marsh
marigolds) now appearing in
lawns & gardens.
15
This weed is extremely
invasive and damaging.
Stop in for detailed
information on how to
control it. We can help!

insect activity on your
boxwoods
25
Boxwood Leaf Miner

and discolored.

Bonide season long
vegetation killer
17
• Kills existing weeds fast.
• Creates a barrier to prevent new growth
all season.
• Use on patios and drive ways.
• Not for use on lawn or gardens.
Hairy bittercress
20
has become an
invasive weed in
home lawns. A dense, vigorous
turf, growing in a well drained
soil is the best way to control its
encroachment.
Planting a vegetable garden?
21
Prune forsythia soon after
blooms subside. Now is also the
10
time to prune paniculata type
hydrangeas. Macrophylia, or mopheads should be
pruned in late summer.
Test your soil first! Need A Soil Test?
We can help!
Zinc Deficiency
• Yellowing of lower leaves.
As the season progresses,
yellowing turns into a
bronze color.
Boron Deficiency
• New growth distorted.
• Leaves are yellowing.
• Roots are short and stubby.
Possible Potassium Deficiency
• Leaf margins are brown and
cupped downward.
Time to care for your
perennials!
27
• Pinch back late summer &
fall-blooming perennials
• Place Peony supports
• Fertilize, compost and mulch
• We suggest
Bud & Bloom Booster
Are the plants in your
garden lacking
micronutrients?
30
Boron, copper, iron, manganese, molybdenum,
zinc and chlorine are the 7 minerals necessary for
plant growth but are only needed in small
amounts. Stop in to see our collection of Bonide
products bearing the enhanced micronutrient
package seal!

Our Philosophy
Our ecosystem is at risk. We at Giordano’s would like to make the
public aware of how some of the garden practices that are current
popular are detrimental to the environment. We are not expecting
change overnight. Through education and public awareness, gradual
change will come about as people become convinced there are
healthier, more productive, and cost-efficient ways to garden than the
ones we are currently practicing.

Most ‘4 Step’ programs treat the
symptoms of pest problems instead
of the root cause which lies in an
imbalance in the soil. Our organic
program strives to correct this
situation by restoring a healty
balance to your soil, thus
eliminating the habitual need for
toxic chemicals which your lawn
then becomes dependent upon.

4-STEP Annual Program
Red
This program does a good job of performing as advertised. It is a simple, easy way to green up your lawn. However, the program
relies on 4 applications of high nitrogen fertilizer. The Nassau County Cornell Cooperative Extension recommends far less, both for
the long term health of your lawn as well as for the health of the environment.
