| NEW PLANTS ON THE HORIZON - OPEN HOUSE MAY 3RD We will officially welcome Spring with our annual Spring Open House on Saturday, May 3rd. Come and see a very artful array of hanging baskets, one-of-a-kind containers and our collections of herbs, annual flowers and hard-to-find perennials that will make your yard the envy of the neighborhood. For the second year in a row, we will also be offering a nice variety of ornamental shrubs and specialty trees. Look for a collection of roses, hydrangeas, and flowering standards. Even if your thumb isn’t green, you will want to come and see the new look in the gift shop(s). An all-new transformation will wow visitors. We will be introducing an entire new inventory with a distinct decorator style that celebrates the best of both worlds – inside and out. |

| MEMORIAL DAY PLANTERS WILL BE AVAILABLE Last year we prepared a limited number of Memorial Day planters. We will continue to introduce these collections for customers who want to deliver a living memorial to the cemetery for the holiday weekend. |
| MOONLIGHT GARDEN PARTY SUNDAY, JULY 13TH Last year we moved the date for this event from late August to mid- July and enjoyed a significantly larger group of participants. The warmer weather and more leisure schedules of mid-summer have led us to make this date change permanent. We have selected Sunday, July 13th for this year¹s celebration. Join us for an enchanting garden experience under the stars. The moonlight setting transforms the garden into a magical retreat and hundreds of sparkling white lights candles and luminaries add a glow that is truly breath taking. The Garden and Gift Shop will open at 7: 30 PM. Don't miss out - we're contemplating our third wine event! Guests are invited to browse among the flowers and sample wines while lingering in the garden and gift barn. The program begins at twilight (approximately 9:00) and will feature remarks from the Little Swan Lake Winery from Estherville, IA. Scott and Diane Benjamin will share about their winery, explaining and promoting their business while explaining about the wines they produce. Learn how they got started with the winery, some of their hurdles, goals and achievements. Reservations for the evening are required - $10 per person and may be limited to a manageable size. The evening will conclude with door prizes. |
