St. John’s Wort Now Available in the Perennial Section of the Nursery

Oh my heart be still! โค๏ธ We love this St. Johnโ€™s Wort , Hypericum primo โ€œGrandeurโ€ for not only itโ€™s unique beauty but it pairs so well with others. We like it with coneflowers, salvia, and grasses. A late summer display that carries into fall, lovely green foliage with small cheery yellow flowers and striking red berries. Has a low spreading shrub like habit. Prefers morning sun and afternoon shade. Deer and bunnies tend to ignore this one (but you just never know with those rascals!) Available in the perennial section of the nursery.

Echinacea Available in Our Perennial Area

We have a nice selection of Echinacea available in our perennial area. We especially like this one, Sombrero Lemon Yellow. This happy colorful coneflower would transition seamlessly as our gardens move into another season. Long lasting blooms from Summer to the first frost. Combined with other Fall like colors and you have a instant garden refresh! Bonus – Pollinators love coneflowers!

Nursery is Cleaned Up After the Storms and Ready for Visitors!

We hope everyone is recovering well from the storm! The nursery is cleaned up and ready for shopping! However, Comcast has informed us that there will be intermittent service to Kingsdene until July 20. This means phone lines are down and the ability to process credit cards is also down. Also, we cannot access emails. As always, we still accept cash or check. Come in and see us if you cannot get in touch through technology!
 
For any of our neighbors still without power, please feel free to come fill up your pots, buckets, or what have you to take care of basic necessities (and plants!).
