What's New
The week of March 5
Artistic Ideas and Growing Things
The Floral Design people have been letting their imaginations run wild with these floralscaping arrangements that feature cutflowers and bulbs in glass containers. We also have some new art by local artist Lorraine Shulba hanging in the garden centre. This arrangement has a gorgeous water garden feel. I found myself looking for the minnows or tadpoles that should be lurking beneath the plants.
Signs of spring include new containers for sale... ...the first herbs are now available for sale and the selection will soon be growing... ...and more and more seeds are arriving for those of us who want a head start before the snow melts...
Behind the Scenes
The first round of begonias were transplanted last week by the crew and are settling in nicely in Greenhouse 1. Meanwhile, a few greenhouses over, the ivy geraniums are being planted into hanging baskets. The crew has moved onto the first of many greenhouses that will be filled to capacity with all those geraniums that they rooted a few weeks back.
