Getting Ready for Spring in January and February

-->






The warm weather we have been having lately has brought in a lot of customers who are ready to get outdoors to enjoy their garden and start planting. However, here at the nursery we are still in between seasons. It is early in the season and a lot of perennials are still dormant and many Spring flowers aren’t out yet.

We do have a lot of the early Spring blooming deciduous trees and shrubs like flowering Quinces, Magnolias, and Redbuds (to name a few). We have a huge selection of roses and peonies. Plus, we are getting shipments of seasonal flowers, perennials, and herbs on a weekly basis as they become available. We choose to wait on some plants to ensure that you get the healthiest plant possible with a strong root system so that you have better success transplanting it to your garden or container. We also don’t want you to get a tender plant too early in case of a frost or a freeze.

If you are looking for a specific variety of plant, please call us and we can let you know if we have it or give you a call back when it comes in. Or, come on in and see what plants are currently in stock. Remember, now is the perfect time to get ready for Spring by preparing your garden beds with compost and planning what plants you want to get this year.
