It is hard to cook things without heat. It is hard to tell the time without a watch or clock. It is hard to keep your hair neat without a comb. The right tools make all the difference in the world. We live in a time of innovation. We find new tools to make our work and home life easier every day. With the right tools, even the most tedious and long lasting jobs can become easy. Working in your yard or garden is no different. It is much easier to plant flowers with a shovel. It is much easier to mow your lawn with a gas mower. It is easier to grow healthy plants with the right soil and nutrients. At Mankin and Sons Gardens, we work hard every day to make sure you have the right tools at your disposal to make your time outside more enjoyable and relaxing. One of the ways that we do that is to provide you and your family with the right soil and plant food to grow the most beautiful plants possible.

Plant food provides your landscaping with the best nutrients available

Obviously, the most important things for a plant to grow are to make sure that they are receiving enough sunlight and water. The effect sunlight has on a plant is pretty awesome. We are sure we are not the only ones that did the science project in grade school where you planted some flower, and watched how it grew toward the window because that is where the sun was coming in. However, the soil in which a plant grows (and the nutrients that soil does or does not provide) is extremely important. That is why we offer a variety of different potting soil, plant food, and fertilizers to fit your every need. HowStuffWorks.com explains that nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium are often the elements you find in most packaged fertilizers. These extra elements provide nutrients and soil reactions that may not naturally occur in your ground at home.

Nothing better than specific formulations

While often, generic packaged nutrients are exactly what you need to help your plants and lawn grow, there is no better tool that specifically formulated packaged soil to help those in Abilene or the Big Country. Our climate and weather patterns are different than those even 2 hours away. That is why Mankin and Sons Gardens is proud to be able to provide you with plant food specific to our area. We pride ourselves in offering the best supplies for your home landscaping needs and our own line of specially formulated additives allows us to do just that. Please feel free to stop by and ask us what makes this brand and formula the perfect fit for your needs.

Mother nature provides your plants with nearly everything it needs to grow to its fullest potential. However, if you want to give your landscaping that extra leg up on the elements stop by Mankin and Sons Gardens and let us help you make your home exactly what you dream it can be.
