Hello Happy Gardeners,
Have a safe and happy long weekend! We are open every day from 9:30 am to 5 pm, including Good Friday and Easter Monday. Our full greenhouse setup is almost complete, and we look forward to seeing you!
Our late shipment of Seed Potatoes arrived, and our selection has been refreshed. You will find Basket Stuffers in section A, all Geraniums in section B, and Petunias in section C, including the mounding and super-trailing varieties! Below, you can learn more about our layout, and our plant location map has been updated for this season.
Collector Tomatoes are now on table A17 north, our 2-gallon Tomato collection, and the Tumbler and Red Robin Tomato hanging baskets in section A. Our regular Tomato selection in 4 packs and pots can all be found on table A13 North through A15 North.
Our schedule for set up is not weather-dependent, so please be mindful that many of the available plants are not ready to be permanently planted outdoors yet. Depending on the temperatures where you live, some plants will need to be given protection from the cool nights. They can be moved into the garage or a cool room, but they should be outside during the day.
Happy browsing!

For the last couple of seasons, Bob, our very own grower, planted Osteospermum directly in the path that the deer were always taking to get to his mixed planters in his yard. The result was exactly what he had hoped for! The deer avoided the Osteospermum and did not follow their usual path; instead, they went elsewhere, and his plantings remained intact. If you have challenges with deer, give this a try and then let us know if it helps!

|
A beautiful, blooming selection of Osteospermum can be found on tables D10 and D11.
