07/21 Plant Pick Up Post and Whatnot

Saltmarsh Mallow

Thank you to everyone who stopped by to see me at Amelia’s Native Wildflowers in Yulee on July 12 for the Nature & Natives Market! I very much enjoy getting to see my customers in person. Lindsey from Amelia’s Native Wildflowers has the markets on the 2nd Saturday of every month. I’ll be there as a vendor selling my cool native plants each month.

And thanks to those who hung around to hear my presentation on how to attract birds to our gardens using native plants! I’ll make a post soon on that subject.

06/17 Plant Pick Up Post

Oakleaf Hydrangea pink blooms

Hi there. I’m sure your gardens are enjoying all this wonderful rain as much as my personal garden is!

Speaking of personal gardens, I have a big ol’ list of plants I’m adding to my garden over the next few weeks. Yes, I know that October through April is the premium time to plant in our area. But y’all keep me so busy during those months that I seriously don’t have time to tend to my own garden. So I’ll just be out toiling and sweating in our heat and humidity while gardening … and loving every minute of it. I’ll post pics so you can follow along as my garden grows.

Purple Coneflower and other stuff

Symphyotrichum patens, Late Purple Aster

I know y’all love Echinacea purpurea, Purple Coneflower, as much as I do. I was checking out the ones I have in stock this morning, and saw that one of them is blooming and quite a few have buds! And they’re doing that even though they are are still kinda small. How cute is that!

May Plant Delivery Post

Smooth Hydrangea

Hello from me and Ziva!

A few days ago in a post called Coming Soon To Your Favorite Native Garden Shop I talked about the plants my suppliers are growing for me. Well, one supplier let me know today that a large part of my order is ready to go! Yay! Usually I pick up orders from my suppliers, but this order is way too big to fit in my truck so it is being delivered to me. I don’t have a specific delivery day yet, but it will be about the middle of May, which is only a couple of weeks away. I went ahead and updated the inventory of the plants coming in on that delivery. That means you can go ahead and place your order for them. But please keep in mind that delivery of them to you is 2 – 3 weeks out. You will get email updates of your delivery day when I get them in stock. I made a note on the description pages for all those plants repeating what I just said here because I don’t want y’all to be surprised that your order might take longer to get to you than normal.
