Our Plants

 

Clicking on the Common Name will take you to pictures of each plant
We are tracking each plant through all four seasons
so that you can get some idea of how it looks in each season

Each picture has notes about care, planting and soil conditions .. execept where noted, we use the following soil mix .. 1/3 regular soil .. 1/3 mushroom compost .. 1/3 soil conditioner and a couple of inches of PermaTill. We make many of our plantings "raised" such that the base of the plant is about 1/3 higher than the surrounding area .. whether it be a raised bed or an individual plant in its "mini" raised bed.

 

Our cataloged plants are just below .. but ..We Need your help ...
Yep .. we too forget to tag all too many plants ... if you can help us identy these please drop us an email
