As this is the only home we will ever know let's take a day to value what a beautiful place that it is and celebrate, in the hopes that we will leave it to our children in better condition than it was when we entered. Happy Earthday.

The Virginia bluebells, larkspurs, wood poppies and bloodroots have emerged from dormancy and have anointed our woods with color and joy. Dodecatheon, woodland and moss phlox, turkscap lilies and birdsfoot violets will be soon to follow.

Native dogwoods are ready for sale! Mountain mints, bee balms, lobelias and Joe Pye weeds will soon be emerging and their flowers will grace the spring breezes. We have a nice assortment of native rhododendrons, maples, red and bottlebrush buckeyes, and other plants ready for planting. Boneset, thoroughwort, asters, ferns, Hepatica, blue lobelia, Aruncus, and other wildflowers are ready for your garden, meadow or woodland!  Winterberry holly, clethra, Itea, Viburnum nudum, Leucothoes, black and red chokeberry and inkberry holly are all looking nice!

We have many botanic delights from which to choose, many of which are not on our website! Come by to see, learn and enjoy.
