Trees & Shrubs
Whether you’re planting fragrant flowering shrubs or opting for a living wall made of carefree evergreens, shrubs and bushes are the standout plantings in any garden. From cotton candy-colored hydrangeas to butterfly-enticing buddleia (aptly named butterfly bushes), you can add color, style and visual interest to your garden and enjoy it year after year. Design theme plantings and garden accents around the centerpiece of majestic trees and shrubs and enjoy its ever-increasing beauty for many seasons to come.
Roses & Perennials
Perennial plants provide pollen, nectar, seeds and nesting material for birds and butterflies. Perennial groundcovers can reduce soil erosion and create interest in pathways, on slopes, along roadsides and ditches. Naturally, the greatest advantage that perennials have is that they come back year-after-year.
Annuals & Herbs
Annual flowers can provide a constant source of cut flowers throughout the growing season. They can fill areas in the flower border where other plants such as perennials have died back, leaving a glaring gap.
Rock & Gravel
Rocks are great at suffocating weeds and show a better success rate at weed-prevention than mulch. Stone cover is perfect for low-water gardens and landscapes. However, stones aren't the perfect solution for gardens that may get a lot of sun because they can hold more heat than mulch.
Mulch & Topsoil
Mulch helps improve soil moisture and prevents plants from drying out too quickly. Mulch helps reduce soil erosion and soil compaction. Mulch helps maintain optimal soil temperatures by creating a barrier from the heat and cold.
Pond water treatments are designed to break down excess nutrients and fish waste, eliminate muck, and remove debris from rocks and gravel. Find pond treatment solutions including water conditioners, beneficial bacteria additives, natural barley products, and more at our Pond Supply Store Members.
Plants absorb nutrients in the water from fish waste and reduces nutrient availability slowing algae blooms. Shade and protection for fish. Plants can provide a hiding place for fish from predators both above and below the water.
Koi
Descendants of the common carp, koi excellent pond fish and are made for outdoor living. They can tolerate a wide range of temperatures and are very hardy fish. The biggest problem with koi is that those cute 5-7″ babies can top out to over 2′! Make sure you have enough room in your pond for those babies to grow into behemoths.
Goldfish
Just like breeds of dogs, there are may breeds of goldfish. The ones that make a good living as outdoor pond fish are the long-bodied, non-fancy varieties, commonly known as comets. Sarasas and shubunkins retain good swimming ability, but are usually overbred.
Pond Filters & Filtration Supplies
Behind every healthy pond is a a good filter system. Pond filters are essential devices to achieve the perfect water garden system. The purpose a pond filter is to remove algae and debris, such as leaves, waste and other organics from the pond. Keeping the water healthy and clear. Without a filter, ponds are at risk of suffering from water parameter imbalances and algae problems.

west virginia State Information
West Virginia is located entirely within the Appalachian Region, and the state is almost entirely mountainous, giving reason to the nickname The Mountain State and the motto Montani Semper Liberi ("Mountaineers are always free"). The elevations and ruggedness drop near large rivers like the Ohio River or Shenandoah River. About 75% of the state is within the Cumberland Plateau and Allegheny Plateau regions. Though the relief is not high, the plateau region is extremely rugged in most areas. The average elevation of West Virginia is approximately 1,500 feet (460 m) above sea level, which is the highest of any U.S. state east of the Mississippi River.
On the eastern state line with Virginia, high peaks in the Monongahela National Forest region give rise to an island of colder climate and ecosystems similar to those of northern New England and eastern Canada. The highest point in the state is atop Spruce Knob, at 4,863 feet (1,482 m),[61] and is covered in a boreal forest of dense spruce trees at altitudes above 4,000 feet (1,200 m). Spruce Knob lies within the Monongahela National Forest and is a part of the Spruce Knob-Seneca Rocks National Recreation Area.[62] A total of six wilderness areas can also be found within the forest. Outside the forest to the south, the New River Gorge is a canyon 1,000 feet (300 m) deep, carved by the New River. The National Park Service manages a portion of the gorge and river that has been designated as the New River Gorge National Park and Preserve. Wikipedia
