Plants are much more than something you love to look at....
Did you know …
plants might just be the hardest working living things on our planet?

Plants are giving back...to you...your family…your work...and your community, offering environmental, economic, mental, and physical benefits.

Plants provide us with food, medicine, shelter, and much more, while also offering habitat for all kinds of creatures.

Every day, healthy landscapes produce oxygen that we breathe, use CO2, and sequester carbon. They even make cities cooler while removing pollutants from the air.

Great news! from AmericainBloom.org

Violas are a lovely spring flower! Hardy enough to stand an ice storm! In his sonnets, Shakespeare used the violet as a symbol of humility and constancy in love.
Also known as Johnny-Jump-Ups- these plants may self-seed year to year showing nickle-sized flowers marked with purple, yellow and white. Violas are not a true perennial plant that comes back from the roots. Meant to be enjoyed in the spring when weather is cooler and we are all hungry for colour!

Primula oh my!

Our first spring crop is in full bloom! These are a hearty little plant called primula. Once the earth is warm enough to plant in, primula can be planted and will come back every year. They range from white to dark blue with yellow, purple and red in between. Makes a wonderful pick me up!

Persian Buttercup

These are ranunculus plants also known as Persian Buttercup, that we grow for their beautiful cut flowers that resemble an old fashioned rose. These plants will begin producing stems approximately mid-March In a variety of colours. The flowers are cut, bunched in buckets then shipped to a flower auction in Mississauga where they will be sold to various stores and flower shops.

Plentiful pansies

Growing in our 12,000 square foot greenhouse are a variety of potted pansies from super 6's to 12" mocha bowls, there will be colourful blooms for everyone in the spring. A color bowl to place in an urn or single pots to plant into one of your own. Pansies are bright and colorful and I can't wait for the first blooms!

Bloomin'

The first bloom of the season. Potted Primrose/primula. Always exciting to see the color popping up everywhere!
