Making Progress at the New Garden Center

The location of the new garden center is across
from Little's Tractor, next to Decker's Pond.

Construction, What's Blooming Now

Just a friendly reminder that construction crews will be repaving part of Route 13 starting Monday June 10th, specifically a section near Early Bird. So, if you plan to visit us during that week, please be prepared for a possible delay in traffic. Route 13A will also be having some work done starting the following Monday (June 17th).

After some much needed rain and warmer night temperatures, things are really taking off here at Early Bird. At this time, we are also having a sale (buy one, get one free) on all of our 4-pack pansies, violas and impatiens. We will soon be posting pictures of the construction WE will be doing on the new garden center- it will be located 1 mile down the road, in Newfield.

Here are just a few pictures of what is in bloom right now. 

Tibouchina- Princess Flower

A very vibrant verbena, indeed.

Angelonia- a lovely scent and beautiful in the garden.
A mixed basket of calibrachoa and petunias.
 
Perennial linum, or blue flax.

An iris with an antique look.

And who couldn't remember forget-me-nots!

Armeria- Sea Thrift

Helenium makes a showy ground cover.

It's hard to miss this show-stopping lupine.

Simply irresistible bleeding hearts.

Add texture with some coreopsis.

Arenia 'Avalanche' makes a nice low mound for borders.
 
Baptisia are excellent focal points with their
interesting foliage and bountiful flowers.

Large blossoms cover much of this climbing clematis.

Wisteria is pleasantly fragrant with these
grape-like flower clusters.

Poppies have large blooms and are instantly recognizable.
