Things are looking nice at the nursery, Our peonies are starting to bloom in the pots. This is a great time to choose a particular color, as it is often hard to describe color once they are out of bloom. Our tree peonies are the first to bloom, and as of 5-2-12 the Rockii hybrids are showing color, and some of the Gratwick hybrids also. We have several nice Guardian of the Monastery and Ledas in bloom at the moment.

Adonis is blooming, a sure sign of spring! Spring has actually been here for a while, as this beauty has been blooming since late January. Hopefully it will be a long slow spring with no surprise freezes! Things are looking good in our winterizing greenhouses with some color starting to show on the Helleborus. We are starting to gear up in the seedling greenhouses!
Here is a view of the snowdrops blooming, they too have been in bloom since late January!

Only it came after Christmas! We welcome the cold as it keeps all our buds in bed until spring truly arrives. Had a couple of confused Lilacs here leafing out this December, but all should be ok now that the cold has arrived. Cheers to Winter! Hoping all our customers are having a great holiday season and looking forward to a new gardening year! We are closed until early April, but please contact us if there is anything we can help you with before then.

Summer is gearing up and we have plenty of shrubs, veggies perennials and container annuals for summer color. The weather is finally fine, and the soil is drying out. A great time to plant. We have some nice late booming lilacs available now. Also, through June 10, crabapple and birch trees are 25% off. Come on out and see us!

Well, the spring equinox is here, but really, all us gardeners are truly looking forward to warm spring showers, sun and flowers! We will be opening for the season on or around the 15th of April, though we of course will not have our full stock of annuals and other tender crops until May (it sometimes snows in April!) That is our "official" opening, However, we do have some lovely Helleborus blooming now in the greenhouse for sale, sorta an early bird...

I was thinking the other day of the colors of fall, and how we have such bright foliage and fruit color. The colors are all vivid reds, yellows and even some pinks. No one would argure that they are extremely vivid colors in the bright fall sunshine, yet somehow these bright colors all have a distinct earthy tone to them, far different than the bright reds and pink of our summer flowers.
We still have a great selection of shrubs and fall foliage interest here at the nursery.
Some of my favorites...
