Have the urge to get a little dirt under your fingernails? Come to our 5th Annual Planting Party! Design and plant your own 12” hanging baskets and/or patio pots for spring. Preview all the best and newest varieties of flowering and accent plants suitable for container growing. We’ll teach you how to combine colors, textures and heights for the most favorable results. Learn how to care for your plants to maintain them beautifully all summer long. We’ll share some of the tricks of our trade such as why we use plants grown from cuttings rather than seed and the best types of fertilizers we use to get our gorgeous finished baskets and pots. You plant now and our staff will nurture, fertilize, prune and otherwise maintain your containers until they are ready for pick up (May 1-21). Cost is $45.00 for the 1st container, $35.00 for each additional container and includes container, potting soil, fertilizer, Soil Moist, premium starter plants (the same ones we use for our own container gardens), ID tags, all our labor and more! Register early; space is limited. Please join us for some light refreshments and a fun time! Planting Dates are March 13, 9 am and 1 pm and March 14, 1 pm. Sessions last approximately 1½ hours

Saturday, March 27 Come to this workshop if you’re not sure how or when to divide your perennials. If you have too many of a particular variety of perennial, bring the clump with you.

If you’re not sure whether your perennial can be divided, call us ahead of time and we’ll let you know.
