With these random hot days (thank you Washington) we are thinking about our favorite drought tolerant plants! Here’s our “go for’s” for ground cover and perennials.

The roses are starting to really bloom and smell amazing ✨
It’s a great time to select exactly what flower you’re looking for and get them in the ground!
All of our roses come in pulp pots that can be planted right in the ground and biodegradable over time!

We are having The Lost Apple Project at our nursery to host a Q&A and information booth about their work! The Lost Apple Project, in a quick way, helps find lost heirloom apple varieties and bring them back to the public eye.
They are here to talk about lost heirloom apple varieties, local apple history, grafting, apple selection, and much more!
We are excited to have a local conservation group at our nursery to share their knowledge and experience! Please stop by from 10-2 to learn more!
