What’s new in Lawn & Garden? Well it’s mower time again. Last Sunday my neighbor and I were doing our best “She’s Having a Baby”, Kevin Bacon synchronized mowing demonstration. Yes it was nearly as comical as the scene from that movie. But it also means one thing, spring is definitely here. I held off mowing until spring this year, and held off until April. If you’ve held off because you have a lousy old mower, then you need to come see us. We have a great line of Toro mowers, and we’ve added Lawnboy mowers as well this year.

Toro makes a great mower, no doubt about it. We’ve sold them for years and have many happy customers with Toro mowers. Their recycler line is a really nice, and surprising affordable line of mowers. Good quality engines, Personal Pace ™ self-propelled, wonderful mulching, easy bagging, very reliable, what more could you need?

I must admit with Toro I thought we had all we needed. That was true until I saw the new Lawnboy Insight ™ mower line. They are quite similar in many ways to the Toro, after all, both are owned together. Lawnboys just have a lot of really nice features to them. The Lawnboy bagging system is really top notch, super easy to get the bag on and off, and easy for the mower to fill. Their top notch mower features a Honda engine, a superb feature alone, yet it also has many other really nice ideas built in to it. The one I like best is the handle that folds straight up vertically. This means that storing the mower in your garage now takes up no more room than the mower deck itself. It also makes it that much easier to take the bag off, and put it back on. The top of the handle has a separate adjustment that enables a shorter or taller than average person to adjust the comfort level right where they want it. Most importantly, these are not you father’s Lawnboy. They’re not the old two-cycle, front discharge, funky side bagging mowers of old. Lawnboy has really made a top-notch nice quality mower. Come see for yourself!

We’ve got our new line-up of fountains in stock and running as well. Some of the same old favorites are joined by new styles that are fun outdoor garden centerpieces, and you’ll like our prices as well.

We have a new line of hats in stock, just in time to keep the sun from burning your head a face as you’re heading out to the garden. Many new styles are available for the guys and for the ladies.

Get out in your yard, get your projects going, and come see us for help, advice, ideas, and the right stuff.
