2012 is going to be a great year!
GSHE is next week and the weather looks warm. Come by the nursery and visit if you are in Semmes before or during the show or we'll see you in our normal spot across from the concession stand.
We have a lot of new and different plants to offer you this spring.
We are getting calls about native plants and jobs that are using more
natives. We can tell you where they occur in nature and what to expect
from them in a landscape setting. As always, please call if you have
questions about them or need information.
-Tom and Thayer

we should have it.
