As the early flowering spring items sell, we continue to bring out plantings of hardier annuals and a beautiful selection of Garden Mums. We also have early Basket Stuffers and bedding plants, and three more aisles in Section A will now be accessible, including the Collector Pepper table. As always, we continue to bring out plantings of hardy vegetables.

More plantings moving to retail tables!
All of our growing greenhouses are getting full as our homegrown crops are sizing up and getting ready for the retail tables. Over the next few weeks, we will continue to set up plantings as they are ready. Please keep in mind that having plants available on the retail floor does not indicate they are ready to plant outside.
Some bedding pack annuals such as Lobelia and Alyssum can be found on tables C2 and C3, while the bedding pack Petunias are now set up on tables C17 through C20. Other bedding pack annuals such as Snap Dragons, Dusty Miller, Zinnias, Sweet Peas, Nasturtiums, Portulaca and Salvia are now on A11 and A12.
A great selection of early basket stuffers can be found on table C4 to C6, including: Bacopa, Lobularia, Lamium, Vinca, Creeping Charlie, Nemesia and Lobelia. The first planting of 2.5" Fuchsias can now be found on tables B1 and B2.
Access is open to all Geraniums, Seed, Zonal, Ivy, Interspecific, Scented and Martha Washingtons. Most of our perennials are available as they get moved into their final locations during the next week or two.
All the Hardy Vegetables are out on tables D16 through D20, including Lettuces, Kale, Broccoli, Cauliflower, Kohlrabi, Onions, Brussel Sprouts and others. The Berries can be found on tables D12 through D15, including Strawberries, Raspberries, Blueberries, Blackberries, Haskaps, Saskatoon Berries, Grapes and more.
