The weather outside may be frightful but inside the greenhouse the planting season has begun! 🌱

Our first echinacea are planted and growing happily in their pots… while the greenhouse is still surrounded by snow. ❄️

Spring may be taking its time, but we’re officially back to planting and couldn’t be more excited!

One of the biggest spring gardening lessons? Patience 🌱
Perennials don’t all wake up at the same time.
Some emerge early, others wait until the soil is truly warm.
Resist the urge to dig or replant too soon - many perennials are right on schedule, even when you can’t see them yet.

Signs of Spring (Even When It’s Still Cold)
Spring doesn’t arrive all at once - it whispers first 🌱
Longer days.
Slightly warmer soil.
Perennials are beginning to wake up underground.
Even when it still feels like winter, spring is already in motion.

Perennials That Get Better With Time
Many perennials follow the “sleep, creep, leap” pattern:
Year 1: Establish
Year 2: Fill in
Year 3: Thrive
The beauty of perennials isn’t instant - it’s earned over time.

Sun, Shade & Location: Setting Perennials Up for Success
One of the biggest factors in perennial success? Location ☀️🌤️🌳
Matching plants to the right light conditions helps them:
• Establish faster
• Flower better
• Require less maintenance
Before spring planting begins, take note of where sun and shade fall in your yard - even in winter.

Why Perennials Are a Smart Long-Term Choice
Perennials are an investment that pays off year after year 🌿
Why gardeners love them:
• They return each spring
• They support pollinators
• They help build healthy soil
• They bring consistency to garden design
A well-planned perennial garden grows more beautiful with time.

Our Garden Centre Team can help you plan your perennial garden - come and see us in the Spring!

What exactly is a perennial? 🌱
Perennials are plants that return year after year - resting through winter and regrowing when conditions are right.
Their strength is in their roots.
Once established, perennials often require less water, less maintenance, and offer long-term beauty in the garden.

Groundhog Day:
When one rodent holds the entire province emotionally hostage.
Regardless of the verdict, we’ll be over here planning landscapes and pretending it’s almost spring.

Perennials That Feed Birds Naturally
Planning a garden that supports birds doesn’t start in spring — it starts with awareness 🌱🐦
Perennials like coneflower, black-eyed Susan, and ornamental grasses provide natural food sources well into winter.
When we choose plants with purpose, our gardens give back all year long.

Birds to Watch for in Winter Gardens
Keep an eye out for:
• Chickadees
• Nuthatches
• Sparrows
• Cardinals
These birds rely on natural food sources, shelter, and safe spaces during the colder months. Leaving your garden a little “messy” helps more than you think.
