Bee on Joe Pye Weed

So excited to tell you about another native plant supplier that I found! She grows her natives from seeds, is in Alachua County, and grows some plants I haven’t been able to find locally. Her plants are in 4″ containers and will be $6 each. To compare, the 1-gallon size I sell is a 6″ container. So these plants will be a bit smaller than the 1-gallons, but so is the price. The group she’s growing for me will be ready in the April/May/June timeframe. Here’s what I’m getting:

Hi there, my fellow flower freaks. Ziva and I hope everyone had a stress-free Turkey Day celebration. We sure did.

Whiteleaf Mountain Mint

Howdy. Before we get to talking about all the beautiful plants we’re getting this week, Ziva and I would like to say a very heartfelt “thank you” to all of our amazing customers. This month has been crazy busy with all the deliveries and visits to Bella’s garden shop, and we are enjoying every minute of it. Y’all have bought so many native plants that we’re sold out on oh so many of them. That, my friends, is not a bad problem to have. No worries though, along with being busy making deliveries, we’re also busy with picking up plants to restock Bella’s shop. So y’all keep buying them, and we’ll keep restocking them.
