40 some days till spring, HURRAH! We have been busy this winter and have just about completed our winter projects. The biggest winter project was building a new growing greenhouse! This greenhouse will be used to grow hanging baskets and annuals. It took us 4 months of trying to get the permits…us being in the flood plane was a problem…but once we got the permits, the project went off without a hitch. Special thanks to Pioneer Pipe and Vertex Electric Company for getting us up and running. Now we’re just waiting for the right time to start the plantings!

We have set the date for the SPRING AUCTION! March 17th at 10:00am, rain or shine. I don’t have any idea what will be in the auction right now (as usual) but we will we decide the day beforehand and have the list posted as soon as I make up my mind. We do have last years auction list from the fall posted here under our weekly specials and our auction tab.

A point of concern – I have seen a lot of damage to evergreens from that sub zero temps in January…It’s too early to tell how serious this is.

Be sure to mark the date on your calendar.  Our spring auction is scheduled March 21st at 10:00. Hopefully the weather will cooperate but we’ll be here rain or shine.

It’s never too early to get ready for spring. The snow makes it a great time to chill out and look at all the plant catalogs for interesting new things. We’ll try to have them for you. See you in March!

It may be a corny old saying but fall is the perfect time to plant. There is much less stress on the plants and a lot less watering for you.
Seed your lawns, plants trees and shrubs and of course mums add great fall color!
