It's time to start clearing out the Perennials in the garden centre, so we can start with fresh new plants next spring. And it's a perfect time to be planting perennials too. Autumn brings cooler nights, and more frequent showers to help plants get a good start. Adding some bone meal to the soil will also give the plants a boost.
Today starts our Fall Sale - Buy 1 at regular price and get the second one at 1/2 price. And as a bonus, if you buy $50 or more of perennials, we will take care of the taxes.
Our fall bulbs will be arriving in the next week or so, and the garden mums are starting to show some color too. We have some beautiful fall planters to dress us your entrance, along with the pumpkins & gourds.
On Sunday, we headed to the quaint town of Neustadt to check on the flowers we started for them here in the greenhouse. These are the petunia towers heading into the arena entrance!
This is front of the Neustadt Brewery. If you ever have a chance to visit Andy and his wife who are the owners, do it! They immigrated from England and are bringing the history and business of the brewery alive again. It's a 150 year old building with quite a story. We got a tour and at one point are 27 feet underground!
Dave and Kevin checking out the ones downtown. Amazing! All Easy Wave Petunias!
The flowers are literally all over town! This is along main street and I believe there was a bench in between the pots. Neustadt is know for its flowers and quaint shops.
I spotted it at the Goderich Vet Clinic when I was driving by one day. It just goes to show how creative one can be with plants! The taller plants are corn stalks, the spikey plants in between the corn are onions! The smaller green plant on this side of the corn is a pepper plant. They were dispersed all along the bed as well. I believe the flowers are petunias.
