This is a family-owned nursery specializing in perennials, shrubs and trees. I was impressed by their inventory and saw some plants that I didn't know existed, such as the red-blooming Cestrum called "Ruby Clusters" pictured at the top. Their prices are also awesome (most of the perennials I saw were $7 with larger sized pots around $12 - $15.)  Stephanie gave us a tour of their 8-acre property which includes large display gardens, areas for weddings and other events and an in-the-works yurt which will be opened as a B&B.

  9. It was nice getting out last Saturday with my tractor hauling mulch to my daylilies and cleaning up fallen limbs. 72 degrees really felt warm, even the dogs were panting from the heat. My daffodils are coming up. Mom next door has one with a bloom on it. Getting close. Mary

  10. Neat photo captions. Here's mine. Hmm, maybe it's too early to go skinny dipping! LOL Spring is coming though if we can tough it out in Feb. It's already the 5th.
