Spring is in the air.

All are busy here at the Greenhouse getting things ready for the big day of March 29. I am sure you have the urge to get out and plant with the weather being so nice but please wait a few more weeks to do so. I say the time to start yard work is when all the snow is gone and then wait 10 days and then if it doesn't snow its OK to do things in the yard. Until then you may come in and browse and see what we have. One thing that all can do is plan what you'd like to plant or have planted by us. Trees can be trimmed now but be careful not to try anything out of reach. The Maple Grove compost center will be opening real soon. Easter lilies and showy Hydrangeas and Tulips will be ready for Easter. Keep us in mind and if you have any question please do not hesitate to call or stop in.
Until next time, Keep smiling.

From The Greenhouse

Plants & shipments are coming in daily now. Lots of plants getting planted and greenhouses getting filled up. The Easter lilies are showing their buds and will be blooming by the end of the month. Daylight savings is a week away and spring is around the corner. This will be a busy year caring for plants all the way until Christmas. We're planting more fall mums this summer then we ever have. So we will go through spring right into summer and fall with no slowing down until Christmas. Get your garden plans going; it will be here sooner then you think. I'll be back with updates the next time I get a brake from watering and planting.

Plants are growing.

Well the time is here at the greenhouse when all are active at getting all the plants potted up, sowed and what not. Just getting everything ready for our spring opening. The baskets are being filled with plants, the pots are being filled with plants and the greenhouses are getting filled. So much to do before we open up at the end of the month. Perennials are getting planted up and starting to look good too. Pat is getting the store all spruced up with lots of new and fun things. You will be so amazed when you walk in the door. Easter lilies are getting nice as well. Well, there just so much to do. Must get back to work. I will try to keep you informed on the new things happening. Or just call or stop in end of March and see for yourself.
Until later - Donna and the gang.
