Walla Walla Sweet Onions

We still have some Walla Walla Onions in ready to go into your garden.

These gems are unbeatable on a Burger or in Potato Salad for your Summer parties.

 Plus if you have ever dried your own minced onion these are totally FABULOUS for drying!

Seriously, I dried these last year at the end of the season because I am crazy and feel like I can NEVER get enough planted.

I had this HUGE pile of beautiful onions and was finished with all the pickled onions we would use for a year. So I decided to try drying them and WOW such amazing flavor to savor thru the Winter months!

This was 18 lbs of Walla Walla Onions, the last big crop of the year and yes I had left some of them a bit long but for drying they are pretty forgiving! ENJOY

Garden Art

We just got in some fun Garden Art that we ordered last Summer. It is always fun to open up these kinds of packages, sort of like Christmas at the Nursery in Spring!

Fairy People riding Dragonfly's

Woodland Gnomes and cute little Mushrooms

 

Fun Woodland Mushrooms

Plus we have Butterfly & Dragonfly wall art,

also some cool wire accents!

Beautiful Camellias

One of the first blooms to come and greet us in late Winter to early Spring are Camellias.

Camellias have such wonderful blooms that are also nice for bringing indoors

and make for a very long-lasting centerpiece!

They are great for floating in a bowl

or they are fabulous in an arrangement

(plus they are great just left on the bush!!) lol

Happy Easter!

'Fire Spinner' Ice Plant

WOW 'Fire Spinner' is a gorgeous newer variety of Ice plant, we just got these in and while of course they are not in bloom yet they will be certain to make a STUNNING display when they are in bloom!

Eye catching tri-colored flowers cover this, rapid spreading bright green mat of succulent evergreen foliage. With the heaviest flowering in Spring and repeat blooms throughout the Summer.

Something about the bright open flowers of this plant just makes me smile and be a bit happier :)

I just love these beauties, they bloom for a long time and when not much else is blooming! There are so many varieties and this one is a favorite. We have these in stock right now and they are flying off the benches, I think everyone is ready for some color. Only a few days left till the official first day of SPRING, March 20, 2013.

Guerilla Gardener

We need to do more of this, truly sustainable gardening where we get young people excited about growing their own food. Ron Finley gets it going!

This gets me excited, sustainable not free or a hand out but working to make our lives healthier.
