May 2023🌞
Finally the endless March is over & May is here 🌷
Warm enough to do a last minute trim, fertilize & fuss on your beloved Lavenders...maybe plant more! Certainly easy to see those that failed from our endless winter. Do fertilize under each new plant & remember to water their first year if we have a scorching Summer. It takes a full year to settle in and become established & more tolerant to the elements.
Look for my "Seduced by Lavender" class plus "Beyond Basil~ and edible flowers" held locally at Patio Gardens in June. Time off from weeding and learn some new tricks. Please register with Patio Gardens...Call 250-652-8338 to sign up & for more information.
Meanwhile time to plant Summer flower & vegtable beauties!
We can offer you great consultations for your Lavender sucess after growing Lavender since 1988. And for the home grower: don't be shy to email us a quick question or resorce request.
Although we no longer are open to the public & have pulled back from our shop & nursery, we still kept a modest Lavender block. Please call ahead to reserve any fresh or dried Sweet angustifolia Lavender for 2023. Please note: All our harvest for 2022 is now sold out.
In January 2022, we tested two new cookie tecipes: one chocolate, one Lemon. Which one would win the taste test?
And the winner is ... BOTH!
