This past weekend, we received a couple shipments of fall patio pots, one of which is resplendent with cabbage and kale, good till Christmas for sure! There are mini ( and maxi) pumpkins – white as well, and a mountain of gourds. Fall is going on indoors and upstairs as well. Joanna was excited to provide valuable gardening information to all who where in attendance. Below are some of the websites that she guided her “students” toward. Joanna, Greg and Erin are always available in store to answer any questions you may have regarding your floral needs.
