Being that our plant of the month this month is the cone flower. I went out and ordered a selection of exciting new echinaceas. They range in colour from a deep coral red to a light, clean pink. Some are fragrant and some are doubles. Hot lava is a choice example that has fragrant blooms that [...]

This is a common problem for bearded irises because when people plant them they do it too deep. The rhizome (their root) actually needs to be exposed in order to bloom. When planting irses choose a sunny dry spot and keep the top half of the rhizome exposed! With so many colors to choose from [...]

Last week I visited a nursery out in the valley that was full of the most amazing  plant material. I wandered through aisles for hours looking for the unique and unusual; which, at this nursery, was everywhere. Dwarf ginkos, miniature agave, black petunias and a weeping blue Sequoia sempervirens were some of the highlights… all of [...]

We had some extremely large boxes delivered to the 192nd st. store the other day.  Whatever could this be?  No one could have guessed a full size horse figurine!  (Except Gale who orders all these crazy things!)  Along with Filly the horse came 3 crocodiles, 3 dogs, and 4 turtles!  A definite statement for anyone’s [...]

Wow, wouldn’t that be neat if we had a glow in the dark plant!  But no, I’m not talking about flora, I’m talking about cool glow in dark mushrooms and butterlfies that we just got in.   Last year we sold out of these right away, so this year we have lots!  Unfortunately we are not [...]
