Hi Gemmell's Gardeners,
Here's the latest Garden Centre Update:
March Break planting was a huge success. 90% of all the annuals and perennials are now planted and growing wonderfully in the greenhouse. The geranium baskets are already showing colour in the retail greenhouse and the red this year is outstanding.
All the new Garden Giftware arrived last week and our pay cheques have been already spent! Spring flags, mats, garden stakes, birdbaths, and garden art all shout take me home to your garden.
We have stocked up on Easter plants for this weekend, lots of choices; Pansies, Gerberas, Medinilla (NEW see sidebar), Oriental lilies, Bleeding Hearts(yes in flower), Hydrangeas in white, pink and blue and of course Easter Lilies all decorated in spring colours with beautiful hand tied bows.
We are open all weekend long
Good Friday 10-4
Saturday 9-5
Sunday 10-4
Easter Monday 9-5
