Profile: Scott has a wealth of experience in pond design and landscaping in general. He came to us in 2005 and we jumped at the chance to finally have someone on staff who knew something about plants. Scott is a Certified Horticultural Technician, having attended the BC School of Horticulture (and because of his high marks we assume he was awake during at least half of his classes.) I recall his first day with us when he astounded us all by explaining what the 3 numbers on a bag of fertilizer meant. Up til then we all thought it was a secret Scientology code. Convinced we had a winner, we made him assistant manager of the 152nd Store almost immediately. Last year he became the Manager of the 152nd St. location. Oh…..and Scott has very neat printing.
I love this little perennial. I’ve never had any problem with them and when things are starting to look rough in the garden , it seems to pop up just in time. I have it under the canopy of a Acer japonicum sp. and in between a pair of mouse ears hosta.
We still have a great selection of spring bulbs that are ready to be planted. Tulips, crocus , daffodils , allium and more .Whatever your preference we have them all.
Autumn is a great time to plant cedar hedging so every fall we get in a great selection of cedar trees . This year we brought in some really lush 6′ and 4′ potted trees.
Our cute little chinese lantern or as some call them pumpkin plants have just arrived and the are all dressed up and ready for your harvest display. These little classics make a perfect gift for any autumn occasion. Well maybe not all occassions… my 1 year old daughter didn’t really appreciate the one I gave her for her [...]
We have just received a new shipment of pottery and it look s fantastic. A ton of new styles and colours in every size to choose from.
We’ve just put these two planters together for display at Potters 152 . It shows what you can do with a little bit of imagination and a whole bunch of kale.
If you’re looking to add something extra to a potted plant that you are giving for a gift . Come into any Potters, we have a great selection of ornamental garden picks and other neat excessories.
The Echinacea are starting to come out in full force. They are so dependable and just seem to know when their bright cheery colour is needed in the garden. With endless available colours and forms the coneflower is an easy fit for any sunny spot. I love to place them in huge masses along [...]
Our little gnome has just sent me pictures of day he spent at one of our local beaches. As you can see it was a beautiful sunny day and the local wild life was out enjoying the surf as well. Fun was being had by all….It was the perfect thing to do on such [...]
I recently purchased a relatively new Acanthus variety called ‘White water’. It has a heavily lobed… spikey,green and cream variegated leaf ( maybe not variegated maybe more like sprayed cream and green leaf )with a cream /pink tinged flower spike. It’s presence in my dark shaded garden is quite apparent and I would definitely recommend it to everyone.
