With ever-changing plant material, annuals for containers, colorful foliage plants, flowering perennials and bulbs, ornamental and shade trees, heirloom plants and shrubs of all sizes, we'll make it easy to put together a garden design that works by offering ideas for companion plants and trouble shooting problem areas.

Look for monthly plant profiles and learning series to increase your gardening knowledge. I look forward to some wonderful discussions with all of you. Feel free to email me anytime!
