In our warranty, FGS defines a woody plant that is either a shrub or tree having multiple permanent stems branching from or near the ground and/or trunk.
Woody plants may be deciduous, meaning they shed their leaves for a season, or an evergreen, meaning they keep their leaves and/or canopy throughout all four seasons.
Perennials are plants, once installed, may appear dormant for a season and return year after year.
While still having a somewhat tender root system, they provide years of enjoyment and enhance gardenscapes.

Remember that plants are living and require special care.
Once we install your landscape or you take a plant home from our garden center, you have the responsibility for the continued health and vigor of the plantings.
The following general instructions will help you enjoy and maintain your investment.
The following should serve as a general reference-every situation is different and simply requires regular oversight and care.
Check new plantings daily for the first two weeks.
Thereafter, plants should be checked two to three times per week.
