Driveway Stand Will Be Set Up!

 Hi all!

How's Spring treating you so far? I've been busy here sowing seeds, growing, transplanting, pruning and more. I'm also still working on our own landscape, and it all takes time, weather cooperation,  and energy that I run low on. πŸ˜… I've been waiting to set up the driveway stand again until we have at least a few warm days in a row, without crazy wind and storms popping up also. It will be random until things settle a bit. I'll try to post a short "open" post here on the page, when I have things out. Eventually I'll have fresh bouquets as well, as the flowers really get going, occasionally dried flowers, maybe some dried herb and Petal satchets, and of course other plants as they become ready. Things will be set up at the end of our driveway, and it is a self-serve, honor system. I'll have a cash box out, and a QR code out there as well, in case you don't have exact cash, and want to pay with pay pal. 

You'll only see me out there if I need to water, restock or put away something lol. I have alot to do during the growing season, and usually try to get in out of the hottest part of the day for a couple of hours. If you have questions ect, I have a sign out there with my cell number so that you can text or leave a message. If I'm home, and able, I'll come up front if needed. This is what works best for me, and it seems, for most people. 

Here's some of what's available at the moment:


1 three gallon Silver Dollar Hydrangea $40

3 two gallon Pee Gee Grandiflora Hydrangea $25 ea

3 one gallon Pee Gee Hydrangeas $15

3 one gallon Pink Diamond Hydrangeas $15 ea

2 two gallon Pink Diamond Hydrangeas $30 ea

2 one gallon Limelight Hydrangeas $15 ea

2 two gallon Limelight Hydrangeas $35


3 two gallon Weeping willows $15 each 

1 two gallon Corkscrew Willow tree $15 

1 two gallon Native cedar(juniper) $15 


6 1 gallon variegated Hostas $7 ea

4 1 gallon Egyptian Walking Onions $8 ea

3 Magic Carpet Spireas $7 ea

2 one gallon Lamb's Ear perrenials $8.00 ea 

2 one gallon Burning Bush shrubs $7 ea


Many 3 and 4 inch pots of various annuals and perrenials..most $5 ea 

Yarrow, Coreopsis,  Gomphrena, catmint, dusty miller, Pink primrose,  ageratum, sweet allysum creeping Jenny, wedding candles mullein and more as they become ready! 


Again, i will have things out randomly right now...check my Facebook page for "sale alerts" and feel free to message me there or at sissy_1973@yahoo.com with questions and directions. 


Thanks all, take care!

Unique BeautiesThis Year

 



Lord willin', I will have many kinds of specialty type things available this year, to include these beauties, Dawn creek blush zinnias and vintage colored celosia, from Floret. I will include some in fresh and dried bouquets, and possibly sell some in 6 in pots as well. I'll also be growing Sunflower Steves unique and beautiful sunflowers! The availability of long time favorites, annuals and perrenials, has become next to nill locally these days. The last few years, all that I've seen available is begonias, petunias, Bonnie's herbs and vegetables, and a few random others. I treasure the long-time favorites and heirlooms such as garden phlox, Speedwell, larkspur, hollyhocks, allysum, Yarrow, snapdragons and many others. Keep me in mind this Spring, when it's time to get back out and dig in the dirt! 

Watch Here to see a short  video from Floret to see what the varieties look like! 🌸🌼🌸

Weed Control On The Cheap

 I'm a member of Mike's group, and have learned SO much from this man, as well as his long time members/growers. 

Here's a great article on using boxes as a weed barrier. I've done this, and am fixing to lay some down again shortly. We've got quite a collection of boxes from Christmas/winter. πŸ˜…

Works great! #gardening

My Nursery Facebook Page

 


Hi all!
Well, here we are in January of a new year,  once again. Seems impossible doesn't it?!
Soon, I'll be getting busy sticking hardwood cuttings and sowing seeds. I'm grateful for the ability to still have a way to stay active with plants, even on long, gray winter days. 
I also have some dormant to semi-dormant hydrangeas and roses available on etsy and ebay. 
As long as you can get a shovel in the ground, you can plant! 
Now is also a good time to do clean up, and add manure compost to the garden, so that it can break down, and work it's magic this Spring.
Here in zone 6b, you can even start a small patch of cold crops next month, such as lettuce. My great grandpa always sowed his first lettuce on Valentine's Day. I do now also, in his memory. 
I just wanted to remind you, especially for my locals, that I update my Facebook page when I can, so check in over there occasionally if you want!
I share links and things, at times, that I find to be helpful or interesting. 
So, stay warm, keep flipping through those seed catalogs for this year's plantings, and for ideas and wish lists!
