Frequently Asked Questions About Gardening
Which planting zone am I in?
Check the USDA plant hardiness zone map, as planting zones have changed slightly over the years. Zones with bigger numbers can start their garden earlier in the year. Choose plants that are intended for your area and up the odds of successful gardening.
How do I get my mulch?
This year, enjoy free mulch delivery from our stores when you reach a purchase threshold. Our associates partner with a third-party to help you get started on your outdoor project by delivering your mulch in a vehicle that matches your project needs. Small orders will arrive via car with a $3 fee, medium orders utilize our vans at a $35 fee, and large orders will ship to you in a box truck or flatbed truck for a $79 fee.
What if I want to pick up the mulch myself?
Yes, you can pick up your own mulch. We're also ready to help if you need it. After you purchase mulch in-store or online with store pickup, go to the mulch loading zone or drive-thru if your store has one. An Orange Apron will load a small or medium mulch order directly into your truck or SUV. For very large orders of bagged mulch or bulk yard mulch, delivery is easiest.
How much does it cost for a small order of mulch to be delivered?
If you have a small bagged mulch order, you can get it delivered to your door via a store-fulfilled local delivery service that uses third-party drivers. Your mulch will arrive in a standard car or van for just a $3 delivery fee. Loose mulch orders, also called bulk or yard mulch, will come in a truck. If you order a specific number of bags, you may qualify for free delivery. That threshold varies from one store to the next. However, you'll be able to verify the cost at checkout.
How much mulch qualifies for large truck or flatbed delivery?
When you're ordering huge quantities of loose mulch or pallets of bagged mulch, you'll be looking at flatbed or box truck delivery. Normally, these are landscapers, Pro customers, or serious DIYers working on a major landscaping project. There's a minimum pallet order to maximize resources and usually a delivery fee. Orders that pass a threshold may qualify for free delivery.
How do I get rid of weeds?
Weeds might start peeking through in the garden beds, even if you put down a landscape fabric liner or mulch to keep them at bay. Be sure to get them before the weeds' flowers dry out and drop their seeds. Pull weeds from the root in vegetable or edible flower gardens, and dig up the roots if the weeds snap off at ground level. If you choose to treat weeds with weed killer, find one that's safe for bees, other pollinators, and pets — and wear durable rubber gloves and a respirator to ensure that it doesn't get in your lungs or touch your skin.
How do I fix burnt grass?
You'll need to rehydrate those roots. The solution for how to get burnt grass green again is easy: Fix the scorched spot with a good long drink, then continue to water it regularly. It should perk up over the course of a week. The method for treating grass damaged by dog urine isn't as straightforward. Grass damaged by pets must be removed, neutralized, and replaced in fresh soil with new sod, grass seed, or patch and repair grass seed.
When should I water my lawn and garden?
If you can water at least once a day, during the evening or in the early morning, that's ideal. When it's extremely hot out, twice is better. Watering when the sun is at its peak means a lot of the moisture will evaporate. This applies to whatever you've got growing: lawns, trees, and gardens. Whenever you water, give all the plants a good drink, and don't skip it just because it's not the best time. The plants still need water to live, regardless of the time on the clock. Depending on your lawn health, climate, and grass type, you may also want to look into adding a lawn fertilizer.
Should I fertilize a fruit tree?
Once you've planted your plants or flowers, make sure they stay hydrated and well-fed. Choose an organic or synthetic fertilizer and give your garden a boost. You can even find one specially formulated for your plants, whether you need a vegetable fertilizer, fruit tree fertilizer, succulent plant food, or a general garden fertilizer. Only apply as often as recommended on the packaging. Always water immediately after, as directed, so your plants don't get fertilizer burn.
How can I keep cool this summer?
When you need a break from relentless summer heat, shelter beneath a covered gazebo or a patio umbrella. If you have sturdy structures like a house or a shed, make your own shade by attaching shade sails and awnings. However, sometimes shade isn't enough because it's just too humid out. That's when a misting fan or patio mister can help cool the air and turn a stifling afternoon into a relaxing day. Go back to lounging in the sun when that water-chilled air is ready.
What do I need for backyard entertaining?
Backyard entertaining doesn't have to be a barbecue party. Some focus on the grill or fire pit, while others concentrate on yard games. Many people simply relax outdoors or cook a meal together in an outdoor kitchen. However you bond with friends, extend the fun into the evening with proper outdoor lighting and a bug-free yard without pesky mosquitoes.

The Home Depot Garden Center at Cherry Hill
Set Up For Summertime
As we stretch into the dog days of summer, your garden and landscaping will weather more heat than earlier in the season. That means you'll need to consider how to keep things cool. You might also need ways to beat the heat. We can help. At The Home Depot Cherry Hill Garden Center, we've got what you need to make the most of summer.
Keep Your Lawn Tidy
As the weeks tick by, the sod or grass seed you planted will grow taller than what's ideal. You'll need to maintain it so it'll look manicured and fresh again. Keep the lawn in check with a riding lawn mower and a string trimmer to knock down any tall grass around fences, buildings, or sidewalks.
Trees, shrubs, and bushes climb toward the sun and lose their shape over time. They'll be growing fast, filled with blooms before you know it. Trim wild branches to the shape and size you want with garden shears and hedge trimmers. It's best to leave tree topping and major tree maintenance to the pros, but you may want to use a pole saw for minor trims and a chainsaw for small bushes and trees.
Watch Your Garden Thrive
Much of your garden's upkeep comes down to balancing sun and water. You'll need both to keep spirits high with summer flowering. A general rule when watering plants and flowers is to water the roots. A garden hose, sprinkler or sprinkler system, or drip irrigation system will work well. You don't need to water the blooms themselves. Many flowers droop when they get wet, but they'll recover just fine once they dry off. Succulents are, of course, the exception to basic watering rules, so look up your specific succulent types to optimize their care.
In addition to watering, keep an eye on your plants' nutrient intake. Use fertilizer as recommended. We've even got fertilizers to match the plant types you're growing so they'll get the right nutrients.
Grow Your Own Herbs
Get fresh flavors to accent garden-fresh veggies with herb gardening. They're generally low-maintenance. It's easy to learn how to grow herbs indoors, but you can raise herbs outdoors, too. If you grow herbs outdoors, stick to heat-loving herbs that'll thrive in the summer temperatures, and consider a hanging herb garden. Read our herb gardening for beginners guide for more info.
Planting herbs in the ground can be tricky, as many of them — especially mint — are invasive and will take over your lawn. So just keep them in small plant pots on a sunny porch, window sill, or even in wall planters. Herbs also work as a hydroponic garden, which means they don't grow in soil. Instead, they grow in a mixture of sand, perlite, or rock chips.
Trees as Natural Shade
Trees are the ultimate natural source of shade, and they can change the look of your yard. Whether you plant a few trees as accents, a few more to bear fruit, or a whole mini-forest, keep in mind this is a long-term commitment. When they're healthy, trees live many decades — and some for hundreds of years. Before you shop, plan so you know how to plant a tree — whether they're evergreens, deciduous tree saplings, or more mature trees.
A house framed by beautiful trees can seem picture-perfect, but research the specific trees you want before planting them. Consider the full-grown size of the trees you want, how far the root ball extends outward, and how deep the taproots go. Plant your trees far from water pipes, as their strong roots will seek water and wend into piping to get it. A tree with a full canopy of leaves catches wind like a sail, so make sure it's planted a safe distance from your home.
If you've diligently planned, found trees you love, and know the perfect places to put them, get planting. That way, you can enjoy natural shade and the soothing sound of leaves rustling in the breeze sooner rather than later.
