Pruning Your Shrubs for This Winter

We will begin pruning back the shrubs in the nursery for Winter this weekend. Stop in all weekend for tips and examples of how to prune your shrubs like a boss! (Properly, too!)

The Best Grass Seed for Your Yard This Fall

Want the best grass seed for your yard this fall? We recommend and carry Vitality. You will get more grass seed per pound since it is not coated. Expertly produced for Maryland’s land and climate. This seed is certified by the Maryland Department of Agriculture and sold to sod farms in Maryland and Virginia!

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!

Time to Start Thinking About Your Fall Garden Harvest!

Did you know it’s time to start thinking about your fall garden harvest? 😱 We know it certainly doesn’t feel like it with temperatures still in the 90’s! But if you can brave the weather by doing a little in the morning or evening, you will reap a bountiful harvest as the weather cools off! We have seeds, soils and starter kits in stock. And, as always, we are here to make your harvest a success! Click here to view a vegetable planting calendar for central Maryland from the University of Maryland Extension.
