Gardens Plus all about Easy Care Perennials

Come on spring!

2011-03-06T15:37:00.000-05:00

We are very excited about this coming season. Loads of new Hosta, Daylilies, Coral Bells and Cone flowers. Site has been updated and orders are coming in on a regular basis. Thank you to all of you. The extra list I post for the perennials I do not ship is being updated and should be done by the end of March. I am just having a hard time in stopping on ordering!
We can also do custom orders if you have a wish list and do not see your selection on our site - send it today!
For mail orders see special page for the March bonus with min. orders.

Fall Clean up underway

2010-10-19T21:17:00.000-04:00

This time of year we clean up all the display gardens. We start with the beds in the sun and cut all perennials back with the exception of the Sedum and grasses. Once we have had a hard frost for a few days we then clean up on the shade beds. Hosta are a lot easier to clean up when the leaves have melted. No knife required. Then lots of time to work on the web site getting ready for the 2011 season.
If you would like to know when the site is totally updated and we are ready to take orders drop us a line - info@gardensplus.ca

Tip of the week!

2010-04-02T09:01:00.000-04:00

Tip of the week! When checking out your garden this week if your (Heuchera)Coral Bells have pushed up above the soil level with the frost you need to push them back down to the proper soil level. This is called heaving and it one of the first things when scanning your garden in early spring that needs to be monitored for. Some winters are harder than others. Here in Peterborough we had one of the easiest winters yet. Happy Easter to all!

Happy New year to you all! WOW it was just ten years ago when we were all worried about our computers. I didn't have the web site then. It was uploaded in 2001 thank goodness. lol Stay warm and do not be shy to post. This is a great time to think about the 2010 spring additions etc. Will post some ideas and combos soon!
