Congratulations to Vivi and Juni on winning our first annual Fall Scarecrow Contest! 🌼🧡 We received several great entries; thank you to those who participated! 🎃✨️

⚠️Caution Men at work⚠️ Our guys have been hard at work over the past few days installing new weed barrier inside the greenhouses. These improve the look as well as keeping dust and weeds under control. We are constantly improving and renovating! Keep an eye out for our future projects! Thank you for the support and we look forward to seeing you soon!

This fall, plant bulbs with your Pansies and Violas. Here's how:
🌷Plant in a mostly to full sun location
🌷Try grouping at least 8-10 larger bulbs, like tulips or daffodils, for greater impact
🌷If you have squirrels that love to dig them up, lay a large piece of chicken wire over your bulbs before covering them with dirt. The critters won't be able to dig them up easily, and they'll bloom up through the holes of the chicken wire!
🌷A good rule of thumb is that the depth that you plant your bulbs should be 3x the diameter of the bulb- ask us specific questions below!
🌷After planting, add an 8-8-8 fertilizer, water thoroughly, and add a layer of mulch on top to insulate your bulbs for winter
🌷Keep a list of the bulb varieties you are using, along with their location and where you purchased them from! This will come in handy next year when you really love a certain bulb but cannot remember what it is or where it came from 🩷

We have high-quality bulbs available now, and it is the perfect time to plant:
•50 in a bag/ $25
•Individual 75 cents each

Happening this morning! Nonna Lisa's organic, homemade baked goods will be with us. Bring a coffee and grab a cookie or muffin while you're here- it's the perfect start to your Saturday. ☕️🍪☺️

Lynn and Tyler have been at the Tennessee Nursery & Lanscape Association trade show yesterday and today! This trade show has been held at the Farm Bureau Expo Center in Lebanon. They've had the opportunity to attend seminars and talk about all things gardening and plant growing with potential customers and other professionals in the business. 🍁✨️

We have bulbs… lots of bulbs!! Too many bulbs to count! So, we have bulk packs of bulbs on sale, 50 bulbs for $25!
Varieties include: Hyacinth, Narcissus and tulips
Buy one of each and plant them to create a beautiful bulb garden for years to come!

Bags cannot be split varieties and must be in quantities of 50.

We also have regularly priced bulbs for .75 a piece.
These bulbs can be bought by the individual or as many as you please.
Varieties include: Tulips, Narcissus, Crocus, Allium, and Hyacinths.

Cozy up to all the fall vibes at your local nursery! 🍁🌼🧡

Lots has been happening around here the last several days! We've been putting up new plastic in prep for colder weather and installing new flooring in our main greenhouse!🍁✨️ What are you all thinking of this cooler weather? We're loving it!🧡

Hello friends, we unfortunately have sad news to share that our beloved Carolyn has peacefully passed away after an extended illness. We feel the immense hole that is left by her passing.

Carolyn had a deep love for gardening and animals. She always babied our kitties, Lily and Willow, as well as our parakeets. She was so knowledgeable about gardening and was generous in sharing her knowledge with each of our team members, as well as our customers. She had a passion for flower arranging, and she was so talented at it. Over the years, she beautifully put together countless custom pots and assisted in making many gorgeous wreaths at Christmas.

We will always miss her smile, her laughter, her sass, her wit, and everything that made her who she was. We rejoice that, as a believer, she is now with Jesus and is in no more pain, but is in eternal glory! Please feel free to share any warm thoughts about her below. 🩷

Add any of these 9 perennials to your sunny gardening bed for color through early/mid-October. 🌼 What's a flower you love out of these 9?

Bonus: When choosing annuals in spring, plant several annuals that perform a long time, such as Lantana. It will fill in bare spots in the garden and blooms profusely until mid-fall!
