Deer Resistant Beautyberry in the Fall

Beautyberry has unique purple berries that hang on through the fall. The berries stand out brilliantly as the foliage starts to change and drop. And, almost as important as the look, another deer resistant shrub!

Firelight Hydrangea for Late Summer Color

Firelight hydrangea is a gorgeous, sun-loving hydrangea that changes from white to deep pink blossoms over a five to six week period (weather permitting). Great for late summer color and big blooms for dried arrangements!

Fall Vegetables Have Arrived!

Fall vegetables have started to arrive! We have broccoli, cauliflower, kale, kohlrabi, assorted lettuce, and Swiss chard. More to come over the next few weeks!

Incorporate Bird Baths into Your Landscape

Splash Splash, birds taking a bath! Don’t forget our feathered friends during this unbearable heat. Did you know birds don’t sweat. They remove any excessive body heat via respiration. Water is a MUST for them during the hot humid months of Summer. Help the birds with one of our colorful birdbaths, including the always popular granite. A lovely addition to incorporate into your landscape! And birds taking a bath are always fun to watch 😊.
