Perennials under winter cover

Winter is thoroughly upon us as I write this. With snow on the ground and overnight temperatures well below freezing, it’s hard to think about plants. As with everything else, this too shall pass, and before you know it snowdrops will be flowering followed by crocus, daffodils and tulips.

As the 2012 season came to a close, we busied ourselves with winter preparations which included overwintering all our potted perennials. We push them all together in large blocks, then cover them with thermal cloth and seal them with white poly plastic. This process protects them from high and low temperature spikes and keeps them dormant until early spring when we uncover them. With our roses and shrubs, we push them together in groups and cover them with wood chips. Preparation for next season also includes getting together all of our plant orders for 2013. Expect lots of new varieties of perennials as well as all of our usual diverse selection.

This spring we will have a plant list available on-line which we will update regularly. We are very excited about this, as it’s been a couple of years since we’ve had a truly updated plant list. We look forward to seeing you this season, we are excited that it will be a great one. Please be sure to sign up for  our newsletter and “like” us on Facebook so you can keep up with deals, recent pictures, and other information.

In the meantime, think warm thoughts and spring flowers!
