Tables are filled with colorful flowers and naturally grown vegetable starts. The grounds are decorated with enough beautiful trees, shrubs and perennials to satisfy even the most discriminating gardener. Since 1977 owner and master gardener Wanda Johansen has cultivated a relationship with plants and people. "We are here to promote successful gardening and fun, states Wanda. She truly has a "green thumb". You will find plants for every space, whether it be shade, coastal winds, sunny, hot areas, deer and drought resistant choices, flower beds, or any sort of containers. The hanging baskets and colour bowls are outstanding. There are ferns, hedges, conifers, bamboo, succulents, and even a frog or two. A friendly staff is available to help you with any questions you may have, or to help guide you with selections for your unique location. In the garden shop you discover gorgeous bulbs, houseplants and beautiful glazed pottery. Here is your source for natural gardening supplies like organic soils and fertilisers, soil innoculants, and insect and disease controls. Quality hand tools, "Gardening by the Moon Calendars", gloves and garden accessories to round out any project of gift make this truly a one-stop garden shop. While browsing, be sure to check out the Big Bang Seed Company selections, seeds chosen for their ability to grow and produce well under the maritime influence of fog and cool nights.
