SumaGreen Testimonial 

Crownover Green Organic Lawn Care - Wake Forest, NC

  

Here is out latest testimonial from an LCO in North Carolina. As you can see from the pictures the lawns are beautiful and are low in stress growing. Here is what Crownover Green had to say about our SumaGreen Turf: As a new organic lawn care company in Wake Forest, NC we researched and experimented with Sumagreen Turf as well as a few other bio soil enhancers and fertilizers during 2012, and we unequivocally chose Sumagreen as part of our comprehensive organic lawn care solution for 2013. It gives our clients' turf a dark green color and seems to keep the lawns greener when other lawns are showing signs of drought stress. We apply Sumagreen on all of our client's lawns throughout the growing season and are very happy with the results. 

Regards, Rodney Crownover

Can Mulch KILL your Tree?

This is a subject of much interest because the trees are suffering. When the soil around a tree gets too high, problems develop. This can occur naturally but is more often caused by people. People who love their trees are hurting and even killing their trees for lack of knowledge. To much mulch around a tree could actually KILL your tree.

Soil is one thing, mulch is another. The difficulty is that both cause problems for trees when applied incorrectly and mulch, good organic mulch that is, becomes soil eventually. The deeper the mulch around the tree trunk the worse the situation for the tree.

Landscapers and builders/developers (sometimes the same but sometimes different companies or different people) cause damage to trees in the normal course of their respective business. Builders prepare the land for building structures and landscapers make the prepared land beautiful. After scraping the earth with heavy equipment the landscapers, and sometimes the builder/developer bring in soil to cover the land for various reasons. The soil level gets raised. Any pre-existing trees that were preserved have to cope with an unhealthy high soil level that actually comes as a mix of detriment and benefit. High soil levels hurt, but new rich soil helps (as long as it does not get to high on the existing tree trunk.

Sometimes homeowners feel it is a good idea to make rings around the trunks of trees by removing the grass and then covering the bare soil with mulch. Sometimes the soil around the trunk will be cultivated, augmented and raised. Then flowers will be planted there. This practices is not good for the trees.

In this picture you can see what TOO MUCH (or to high) mulch can do to a tree at the base of the tree.

Science Fair is No competition for SumaGreen

We at SumaGreen would like to Congratulate Kylie Elwell in winning her Third Grade Science Fair in her experiment with SumaGreen. Her project compared SumaGreen, fertilizer and a control (nothing). Marigolds were each planted with 8 seeds in a planter. SumaGreen had seed germination of 8 of 8 seeds, fertilizer had 3 of 8 seeds germinate and Control had 2 of 8 seeds germinate. Over all out of over 120 participants she won her category. If you have any pictures or Science Fair winners please send them in.
