The Nursery is a Happy Place To Be!


Our garden center is situated in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada's, in the gold country of Amador County.  The garden center is managed by our daughter, Salye LaBelle, and is located at 18815 Ridge Road, Pine Grove, California. Our goal is to provide quality, healthy plants and good service, building great relationships with you, our customers, offering you the finest in garden products, accessories and the latest in horticulture. 

We feature many great selections from local growers with seasonal shipments of herbs and beautiful perennials and annuals, especially roses from Week's Roses. Many are grown right here at the nursery so they are already acclimated to our zone 6/7 gardens. Remember to plant bulbs in your garden, they are wonderful perennials. We have a variety of lovely roses available for your gardens all year long. Fragrant, disease resistant, shrubs, trees, in so many colors, and sizes, you must visit to see our great assortment! Lovely peony selections at Dragonfly Peony Farm. It's time for Bareroot 2012! Click here for our fruit and nut lists.

 

The Nursery is a happy place to be with blooming shrubs, perennial ground covers, and hardy perennials of many varieties. There is an amazing array for your garden and for gift selections. We also have lovely house plants that make great gifts throughout the year for any occasion: orchids, beautiful indoors; they need good light and cool nights and almost any will bloom again and again; a blooming bromeliad, plants that look like the tops of pineapples (they have fantastic flowers sporting wild reds, blues and purples. Easy to care for, provided you keep the "well", formed in the center by the leaves, filled with water. Select lovely clematis with profuse blooms, in white, pink, or purple; blooming primroses held indoors during winter have a magical fragrance. Plant outside now.

How about a chocolate scented flowering plant for an exciting summer garden addition,
Chocolate Cosmos! Fragrant Gardenias speak of love every time a flower blooms with their white, waxy petals. Delightful year after year; imagine a shrub full of these beauties. Magnolias are large, lovely trees, bloom heavily, and make a sensational gift any time of year.

Come and see what we have to offer; lovely plants that will carry your garden through all the seasons each year.
Come visit the demo garden; walk through and see our wide selections; envision the fragrant, vibrant plants that will bloom in your spring, summer, fall and yes, even winter gardens! Our Bonsai clinics are always lots of fun and great learning experiences. Check our Clinic page for upcoming events and classes.
 

Also check out our 2012 fruit tree list for new varieties (or old favorites) for your yard. Stop by the nursery and see them close up and personal. They are potted and ready for you to take home. Deciduous trees are bare in winter, allowing you to see their unique limb structures. Consider citrus this year; keep them protected in our area during winter, on an enclosed porch, a cool room, or maybe in a lovely pot indoors! In many areas, they do just fine outdoors. Lovely fragrant blossoms, glossy green foliage, and lemons--so many benefits! Keep these instructions for later in the year: Planting Bareroot, click here.  ROSE BAREROOT ORDER FORM


Trees are fun to select; we have a grand selection in stock, stop by to see them; it's nice to see them in spring bloom but any time of year is good. Check our in-house catalogs to see how they will look throughout the seasons in your garden. Stop by the nursery; you will enjoy your visit.
Deer - Stay ahead of the deer -- they will venture out for food, in your garden! They get hungry anytime! There are many repellants available. Be ready for them; don't share your hard-worked garden produce! They adore roses, too! More on Deer.

Houseplants - Keep them well watered; home air and heating can dry them out. Give them a Bayer plant spike to protect them from insects; remember to fertilize. Choose some new ones to beautify your home during any season. Rinse them off well before winter closes the windows of your home.
 



Deer a problem? Fight back with products like Liquid Fence! Apply it directly to your new plantings, or anytime; it acts as a barrier by affecting deer's taste and smell senses. Don't want to spray your plants? Try Deer Scram! You sprinkle it around your plants and it protects for 1 month! We also carry Plantskydd, Shake away, garlic chips and we even carry a deer fencing that is light-weight and easy to install, and it lasts. It is 7 1/2 feet tall and you can purchase it in any length. We have had it around our demo garden for 5 years! By planning ahead, you can have flower interest even through the winter! Come by and see our demo garden, lots of interest and many plants blooming. Changing with the seasons, it is a fun place to visit!
Redbud trees are gorgeous, not only their leaves but their spring blooms. Get one for your garden!
We have 4 different blends of seed for lawns in our area,
Shade Blend, no Mow (for a  natural meadow look requiring low water),  Bolero Plus, and 90-10.

Spring and fall are good times to sow new lawns, or repair patches in your lawn. We have several soil additives for every scenario in your garden. See our selections, click Here.
