Andy and I are in Columbus,Ohio for our annual trip for continuing education and an industry trade show. As usual we saw some really cool new plants. Mandeville and diplodenia were one thing that we were asked for and we didn't have. We saw some very unique colors that will be available this coming season. We saw a double dwarf sunflower that blooms all summer and multiple other cool new plants. Please let us know what you think. Your feedback helps me decide what new things we will be adding to our grow list.
Thank you

Many of our customers ask what we do after spring flowers are done. We propagate strawberry plants for commercial farms in multiple states. We receive our plants from multiple strawberry nurseries. The plants come in boxes of 1000, we plant them in a tray and 4 weeks layer the plants are rooted and ready to be planted in the field. Those plants will then be harvested and the fruit sold next spring. The plants on the ground in trays were planted yesterday. We will finish up today on our first shipment. We will receive multiple shipments of plants between now and the middle of August. ... See MoreSee Less
