Early autumn in Pacific Northwest is arguably the best time of year–cool, crisp mornings, warm sunny afternoons, and the return of occasional rains to help water the garden as you enjoy the waning days of harvest and summer’s final wave of blooms. Additionally, early autumn is the best time of year to plant just about any shrub, tree, or perennial to help it get the best start. Soil warmed by summer’s heat encourages rapid root development while shorter days minimize the stress of transplant, ensuring your plants will be well-established long before winter’s cold winds blow.
To help make your gardening budget stretch further this season, we invite you to check out our Fall Plant Sale on nearly all trees, shrubs, & perennials 30% off starting Friday, September 4. Only a few plants are excluded from the sale, including Emerald Green arborvitae–already priced much lower than other area garden centers–as well as Excelsa cedars and fall flowers.
Stop in to browse our wide selection of unique and unusual plants, as well as must-have garden classics. As Whatcom County’s oldest nursery and garden center, we’ve honed our craft over the years and have sourced the best, healthiest plants you’ll find anywhere to ensure your garden not only looks beautiful, but thrives for years to come. We look forward to the opportunity to help you pick out the perfect plants for your yard!
What’s Included?
Give Your Plants What They Need
Give your plants a healthy start by feeding with Espoma Bio-Tone at the time of planting. After digging a hole for your new plant, sprinkle this high-quality organic fertilizer into the bottom of the hole and work it into the soil. The fertilizer will begin to work immediately to help your plant develop a strong root system, and the mycorrhizae in the fertilizer will further enhance your plant’s ability to absorb water and nutrients, greatly reducing transplant stress. Pick up a bag of Bio-Tone at the nursery when you’re in this weekend–it’s what we use in our own gardens and trust for great results!
