Help! I Grew This Stuff, Now What Do I Do With It?!

Announcing Harvest Cooking Classes

We're trying something new:  cooking classes, designed to teach YOU how to cook with the season's bounty.  We're going to learn how to make pesto, tomatillo sauce, wine, jalapeno jelly and salsa.  And we're going to discover great recipes for eggplant, parsnips and some of the other grown-less-often veggies.  It should be great fun, and it's FREE!  Cooking classes start Saturday, Sept. 11 and will always be held in the afternoon.  Find out more in "News and Announcements" on this page.  Then sign up for all the workshops by visiting the Greenhouse or calling 672-8340.
What's New, What's HOT!
SOLAR LANTERNS

Just in are more of these gorgeous stakes (that also happen to be solar-powered lights).  The stained glass globes look stunning by day, and the soft glow of the lantern adds something special to summer nights.   We'll have more of the solar-powered fountains, too.      
 
MORE STATUARY

Thanks to your great response to our first shipment of concrete garden statuary, we've brought in a second truck load.  Lizards and cacti and boots, oh my . . . plus all kinds of whimsical and wonderful creations that will make your garden pop without costing you an arm and a leg.
 
 
 

annual VINES

Like all annuals, these vines will grow and flower for only a season, but they’ll put on a terrific show the whole time. All annual vines need full sun. We carry the following vines.
 

MANDEVILLA

Mandevilla are a fast-growing, big-flowered tropical vines.  They can be grown outside in the summer, then moved inside for the winter.  Pictured is Stars & Stripes (photo courtesy Diana Reavis).
 

MORNING GLORY VINES

Morning glory vines are fast-growing and spectacular.  Scarlet O’Hara has very large, wine-red flowers.  Heavenly Blue is the blue-flowered favorite.  Plant them in full sun when all danger of frost has passed. 
 

THUNBERGIA

Thunbergia, sometimes called Black-Eyed Susan vine, is another super-aggressive, annual vine, growing up to 3 feet in a season. We’ll have Susie Orange with Eye, Susie Yellow with Eye and Susie White with Eye.

SWEETPEAS

We start Sweetpeas in December so you can enjoy the fragrance and blossoms as an early harbinger of spring.
