What's Going On At The Nursery Now And Other Related Items

Updated: April 26, 2012

SHIPPING SEASON

We are shipping all of our potted plants now and this will continue right through fall. Browse through our website by using the links on the left side of this page to see what we have to offer. Brisk Spring sales and early shipping due to the warm winter and spring has us running low of a few items, but we are working on a second crop for most of these and shuld have them ready by late spring or early summer. See the chart by each plant to see when they will be ready.

Also this time of year we are sowing seeds in our greenhouse for next years crops, and keeping the weeds pulled in our cold frames this time of year is always a big job. They just seem to grow much faster than our plants.

Website

During the winter months we have been working on our website by adding new pictures and updating some of the plant descriptions. We had hoped to have some more additions and a few other things done but due to the mild winter we have spent more time working outside than we did in the office. As the year goes by we will continue to work on our website so keep checking back.

We are very excited to announce we have completed our new 2012 catalog. It has taken all winter but we finally have it ready. This is the first new catalog we have done in several years.
