The word green has always been synonymous with gardening, and the lawn and garden industry is in stride with the green movement, putting on the market many new products, fertilizers and chemicals that are more organic and natural than ever before. The new products use less material and are very target selective in what they do. It is important to identify the particular problem before choosing and applying the product. Many of these products are modestly priced, so "going green" is not only a smart way to garden, it may even be less expensive. That's a benefit for both you and the environment.
