Spring is around the corner, and we’re busy in the greenhouse getting ready for garden shows up and down the island!
Are you looking for some heirloom tomato or succulent cucumber starts? Maybe you’re in the mood for some deer and drought resistant flowers for your front yard. We have a fantastic array of allium, narcissus, and other flowering bulbs this year, as well as the usual smorgasbord of high quality, organically grown veggie starts we’re known for.
We have a number of spring garden shows booked across Vancouver Island for the coming year, so come find me at:
