Earth Healer

We are enjoying some new design/install projects. Even our regular contract maintenance customers got a few new plants! Also, for regular clients, we are now taking Zelle as a form of payment. Think about us for your garden renovations!

Million Bells... aka Calibrachoa or mini petunia. Still early to plant outdoors but watch for these in garden centers. They make great "basket fillers" and will quickly fill out if planted after the last frost. They like full sun and do need to be watered regularly - but pay back for the care with almost continuous blossoms through the summer. And yes - I am back into my love of the color pink!!

Paperbush - Edgeworthia chrysantha

It has been a mild winter here and these deciduous shrubs are already in bloom. Since it has cooled off a bit, the blooms are lasting a long time! (They can bloom from January to April here in the Pacific Northwest). They smell wonderful! In the Thymelaeaceae family, they are naturalized in Japan, Himalayas, and China and used for making paper. In China, they are also used for traditional medicine.

Winter rose - another name for the Hellebore. Some are already in bloom in Seattle gardens! There are many varieties - some that bloom as late as March.

Cyclamen in ice! Nodding through some Sweet Woodruff. They will come through this cold just fine to greet us in the New Year!

Every year this Rodgersia plant from the Saxifrage family amazes me!! It looks like it could have come from the dinosaur age! These are moisture loving deciduous, herbaceous perennial plants that can be grown on the edge of rain gardens/bogs. These plants get 3 to 5 feet tall with flower stalks in early summer that are pink or white, depending on variety. Easy care but the snails do enjoy the young growth!
