     The  Garden Center has created wonderful display gardens that wind across a sloped garden area. Sound familiar? Many of us have just this type of garden area here in the foothills. Come and see the charming plantings created for this display garden. As you drive by the nursery, the colors in the garden, the height and different growing structures grab your attention; you want to stop! So come on in! Truly a four-season garden display, you can see something blooming at every season of the year. Textures, different heights, a medley of assorted green hues also add to a garden's interest.  Imagine these in your garden setting.

     Perennials, ground covers, grasses, annuals, vegetables, roses, vines, herbs; you will find all this and more planted in an appealing design at the Ridge Road Garden Center's Display Garden.  Sedum Autumn Joy is a wonderful four-season plant; Mahonia's notched leaves are wonderful in the garden, and turn red in the cool fall air; Viburnums are magnificent stalwart plants blooming when not much else is in the winter landscape. Pansies are perky most of the year, and the asters bloom in fall!

Stop by to see our display garden; see how a four-season garden can increase garden enjoyment throughout the year. Bulbs can be planted now for a great spring show! Stagger your plantings of Daffodils, Gladiolas, and lilies this month for extended spring and summer blooms. Try new bulbs this year, so many spectacular bulbs to enhance your gardens.

Daphne shrubs love the cooler weather, and are wonderful  in early spring with flowers that carry great fragrance. We are continuing to plant the display gardens with you in mind.  Talk with one of our skilled gardeners soon to help with your garden designs.

 

Groundcovers hold the soil  well
