Follow the brick road!  The Shishigashira Japanese Maple 'Lions Head' is a very compact, slow growing cultivar that lends itself to growing in pots as a focal piece in your landscape or can be trained into a bonsai early on. This bright yellow-green leaves turn pumpkin orange in the fall.
Unusual Hybrids: Itoh Peonies These special peonies are an exciting hybrid between Garden and Tree Peonies. They are all highly sought after by collectors – yet easy to grow and very hardy. Itoh Peonies are herbaceous and lush with sturdy stems, so when the flowers grow to be quite large, they don't need to be staked like garden peonies. Check out all the varieties we have – now available in the nursery!

 Fall Garden Tips: Cover Crop & Improving SoilNow is the time to sow cover crop over your beds to prepare for spring. This helps replenish nutrients, suppress weeds, loosen the soil and add nitrogen back in. You don't need much – a little seed goes a long way!
Be sure to take advantage of our sale on Gardner & Bloome Soil Building Conditioner (Buy 3 get 1 free) while supplies last.  Final Week of our Fall Progressive SaleThe moist climate that comes with Autumn makes it the best time of the year to plant – the soil is still warm, allowing roots to continue to grow until the ground freezes. We're celebrating this transition with discounts throughout our nursery on Trees, Shrubs, Vines, Outdoor Pottery and Statuary as well as running a Buy 3 get 1 Free special on soil conditioner. Stop by this week for big savings! Sept 17-25: 40% OFF: Trees*, Shrubs*, Vines*, Outdoor Pottery & Statuary Buy 3 get 1 FREE Gardner & Bloome Soil Building Conditioner (while supplies last) *Select green tagged plants will remain at the 20% through out the sale.
Fall Planting Tips: Soil ConditioningAs we all have discovered for ourselves, Whidbey is mostly made up of clay and gravel–which makes for a tough environment for most plants. So, any time you add organic matter to your beds you are helping enrich the soil and drastically improve conditions! Top mulch a few inches of compost or soil conditioner (like Gardner & Bloome) during the Fall–it will compost down over the Winter and you'll be primed for planting come Spring! This Soil Conditioner helps slow drainage and retain moisture in sandy soil while breaking up clay beds as well.
