Sunday 5/15 plans

There is no delivery today. There was a good rain in the evening on Saturday, so a lot of plants should have gotten a good dose of water. The heat from today's weather could dry that all fairly quickly so we still need to be actively checking all product for watering and still making sure that everything fills heavy. Please be mindful to check each area, and again, always check your front doors for other displays or racks that may need rotated and watered as well. 

After watering, please condense and reorganize tables. As a reminder, id like this to be done from table to table. As people pick up items, we should be adjusting end caps to fill. When hanging baskets sell thru, we should be bringing forward hanging baskets from the second rung (if you have double hung baskets). The more our displays look clean, clear, and inviting - the faster we sell product. 

Pruning - display to display. Pick off bad, dead yellowing or mushy blooms and leaves. Carrying a bag or bucket with you to catch the trash. 

Then we need to be making a clear effort to be doing extra cleaning. I still don't have a confirmed date of the corporate visit but it is ever looming and could happen anytime, hopefully next week. Please make sure to sweep the garden center around our product, sweep around our additional displays, and clean off wooden tables. Also under tables, especially end caps that had messy flowers. 

Nit a hard day today - but a mindful and tedious day. Do not rush through, please do your part to make sure that our garden center looks lush, well cared for, clean, priced, and organized.
