North Haven Gardens (NHG) is a locally owned garden center in Dallas, Texas. Over the years I have watched as NHG has become more organic and has carried more native plants. It even has large bins for recycling garden pots. The staff is great - friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. NHG has its own vegetable garden for display and teaching purposes. And there are classes, seminars and other events almost every weekend. New this 2015 -16 season is the addition of a small art gallery and a cafe. Their website has a wealth of information, plus they publish a bi-monthly newsletter. Many of the local garden clubs hold their monthly meetings in NHG's classroom. They're on Facebook and respond to all questions in no time at all. Check them out if you're in Dallas. And do check out their website.
I was so thrilled to have discovered Secret Garden Growers when I was searching for a dancing crane ginger plant. They have so many unique plants to choose from. Not only did I get 3 awesome ginger plants, but I also bought 8 other very cool plants. They were so nice and knowledgable and answered all of the questions that I had. This is definitely one of my favorite places to buy beautiful plants!!
I ordered from Caladium Bulbs 4 Less in Bill's super fall sale. He gave me a GREAT price and the bulbs arrived quickly. Customer service was unusually good. I planted and was amazed how fast the bulbs sent up shoots. I'm going to get more in the spring. Recommend!
Visited with Randy and Cindy Fleming at Dragon's Mead Daylily Garden yesterday. The gardens at Dragon's Mead are beautiful even out of bloom. Picked up some plants that were ordered and a few extras that were on my list. I even got the DW to pick another three. Very nice folks and wonderful to chat with as you wander through the gardens. We will be visiting with them again.
Check out these numbers from last week:
