Perennials for sun and shade; we have an especially good selection of ferns, and are stocked up on groundcovers.

In the shrub yard...The 'Limelight' hydrangeas are blooming- these make great gifts!  Rabbiteye blueberries and figs are in stock; plant some now and harvest your own crop next summer!

Lots of lovely houseplants in all sizes- a great way to bring the garden indoors when it's too hot outside!

Everything is still healthy and

mums and pansies arrive! 

We Pruned Our Knockout Roses...

in June! 

Seasoned gardeners are familiar with the old rule about pruning roses in February, and while it is true that this is the best time to prune them, we bent the rules a little- succesfully!

Here are the roses before we pruned them (early June):

This is what they looked like right after pruning.  If you were wondering what the catch is, here it is- You can prune your knockouts anytime during the growing season if they are overgrown or looking tired, but be prepared for bare looking plants with no blooms for a few weeks.

Fertilize your knockouts after pruning to give them a boost and about six weeks later they will be full, healthy and blooming again!
