Which planting zone am I in?
Take a look at the USDA plant zone map, as planting zones have changed through the years. Zones with higher numbers can start their garden earlier in the year. Increase your chances of successful gardening by planting flowers, veggies, and trees that thrive in your zone.
Does the type of mulch delivery affect the cost?
This year, enjoy free mulch delivery from our stores when you meet 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 arrive via car for a $3 fee, medium orders utilize our vans at a $35 fee, and large orders come to you via box truck or flatbed for a $79 fee.
What if I want to pick up the mulch myself?
Yes, you're welcome to pick up your own mulch. Even better, we're ready to help if you need it. After you buy mulch online with store pickup or purchase it in-store, go to the mulch loading zone or drive-thru if your store has one. An Orange Apron can load your small or medium mulch order into your truck or SUV. For very large orders of bagged or loose mulch, we recommend delivery.
Does The Home Depot deliver mulch?
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. Bulk mulch, also called loose 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 store to store. However, you'll be able to verify the cost at checkout.
Who qualifies for flatbed or large truck mulch delivery?
When you're ordering huge quantities of bulk mulch or pallets of bagged mulch, you'll be looking at box truck or flatbed delivery. Normally, these are serious DIYers, Pro customers, or landscapers undertaking a major landscaping project. There's usually a delivery fee and minimum pallet order. Orders that pass a threshold may qualify for free delivery.
How do I treat weeds in my veggie garden?
Weeds might start peeking through in the garden beds, even if you put down a landscape liner fabric or mulch to keep them at bay. Be sure to get them before the weeds' flowers dry out and drop their seeds. Pull out weeds from the root in vegetable gardens, and dig up the roots if the weeds snap off without them. 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 irritate your skin or lungs.
Can I fix grass damaged by pets?
The solution for how to get burnt grass green again is easy: Fix the scorched spot with a good long drink. Continue to water it regularly. It should perk up by the following week. On the other hand, the method for how to treat grass from dog urine isn't as straightforward. Grass damaged by pets must be removed, neutralized, and replaced in fresh soil with new sod, grass, or patch and repair grass seed.
When should I water the grass?
If you can water at least once a day, during the early morning or in the evening, that's ideal. When it's extremely hot out, twice is better. Watering during the heat of the day means a great deal of the moisture will evaporate. This applies to whatever you're growing: lawns, gardens, and trees. Whenever you water, give all the plants a good drink, and don't skip it if it's not the perfect time. The plants still need hydration, no matter what time it is. Depending on your grass type, climate, and lawn health, you may also want to add a lawn fertilizer.
Should I fertilize a fruit tree?
Once you've gotten your plants into the soil, you'll need to make sure they stay well-fed and hydrated. Choose a synthetic or an organic fertilizer that fits your needs and gives your garden a boost. You can even find one that's formulated for your plants, whether you need a flower fertilizer, vegetable fertilizer, citrus tree fertilizer, or general garden fertilizer blend. Follow the application instructions and don't add extra. Remember to always water immediately after, as directed. That way, the plants won't be burned by the fertilizer.
How can I keep cool this summer?
When you need a break from relentless summer heat, shelter under a patio umbrella or a covered gazebo. If you have sturdy structures like a house or shed, make your own shade by attaching awnings and shade sails. However, sometimes shade isn't enough because it's just too humid out. That's when a patio mister or misting fan can help cool the air and turn a stifling afternoon into a refreshingly relaxing day. Go back to lounging in the sun when that water-chilled air is ready.
How do I do a quick patio makeover for entertaining?
Spending time with friends in gorgeous summertime weather makes the season even more special. But you don't need to do a full patio makeover or create your own patio furniture collection from scratch to do it. Even a minor backyard refresh can make a huge difference. A new outdoor rug, outdoor lounge furniture, or even a string of outdoor lights can bring character to a backyard.
The Home Depot Garden Center at Midtown Manhattan
Settle Into Summer
As summer stretches on, your landscaping and garden will weather more sun and heat than earlier in the season. That means you'll need to consider how to keep things cool with shade, irrigation, and proper tending. Just like we can get sunburned, trees can lose their leaves prematurely, grass can get scorched, and plants can dry out. Let us help. At The Home Depot Midtown Manhattan Garden Center, we've got what you need to make the most of summer.
Lawn Repair and Patching
Scorched, or burnt, grass has an oddly shaped discoloration that isn't green. It happens when plastic or metal sits on the grass and bakes in the sunlight, or a reflective surface shines continuously on your lawn. You'll discover it once you move something sitting in the yard, like a sprinkler or garden hose. Mirrors or car windows can also scorch grass when the sun angle is just right.
Water burnt grass well and wait a week or so. You should see the signs of life returning by then. If it needs neutralizing after urine damage, you must replace the grass or use patch and repair seed to fix it up.
Whether you're patching a lawn or doing upkeep on your current one, keep in mind which type of grass it is and tailor your lawn care accordingly. Match the grass type to how much sun your lawn gets — or to the existing grass type if you're doing patch repair. For example, if trees or buildings shade your lawn so it gets dappled sun or partial shade, make sure you plant sun or shade grass or part sun grass that's not meant for full sun.
Watch Your Garden Thrive
Make sure to water your garden. That's the way to keep it going between rainstorms and enjoy the 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 can get the job done. Contrary to popular belief, the blooms themselves don't need to be watered or even misted. Many flowers droop when they get wet, but they'll recover just fine once they dry off. Succulents are the exception to basic watering rules, so look up your specific types of succulents to optimize their care.
In addition to watering, keep an eye on your plants' nutrient intake. Use fertilizer and plant food as recommended. We've even got fertilizers to match the plant types you're growing so they'll absorb the right nutrients.
Grow Your Own Herbs
Get fresh flavors to accent garden-fresh vegetables with herb gardening. They're generally low-maintenance. It's easy to learn how to grow herbs indoors, but you can raise them outside, too. If you grow herbs outdoors, stick to heat-loving herbs that'll endure the summer temperatures, and consider a hanging herb garden. Read our herb gardening guide for beginners for details.
Planting herbs in the ground can be tricky, as many of them — especially mint — are invasive and will take over your lawn. Avoid a yard of volunteer herbs when you just keep them in small plant pots on a porch, window sill, or even in wall planters. Herbs also work as a hydroponic garden, which doesn't use soil. Instead, they grow in a mixture of rock chips, perlite, or sand.
Vines as Decorative Shade
Plant vines near an arched arbor or trellis so they'll climb it and give you both beauty and shade. Go with vine plants that are native to your area to attract pollinators. Grape vines are a classic choice, but they take time to mature, so you'll have shade without grapes for a few years. Don't forget to match your vine plants to how much sunlight you receive, as not all of them thrive in full sun. As a bonus, many vines put out sweet-smelling flowers, so you can enjoy a delightful fragrance as you cool off in the shade.
