Spring is Just Around the Corner!

 
The few warm days we've recently had are certainly a tease for what is sure to come.  Until then, join us for the next best thing - fun and informative presentations and workshops in our heated greenhouses! We have an extensive list coming up in the next couple of months, kicking off the list with a "Hypertufa" Workshop on Saturday March 18th.  Hypertufa is a lightweight concrete material that can be moulded to create unique outdoor planters.  We are also excited to announce that we will once again host our "Spring Into Summer Event" on April 22nd.  Working in conjunction with Russell Ladies Night, this event will be a fundraiser for the Autism Canada.  More details to follow! 

In store, our spring decor items are arriving weekly - including indoor pots, pillows, scarves and interior décor items. We also have a great deal on last year's stock of small outdoor pots - 30% off. Don't miss out on this great deal as we have a limited number!  We also have a beautiful selection of tropicals, succulents and airplants, for those looking to green up their indoor space.  All great items to put you in the mood for spring! Check out our facebook page as we'll update it regularly with new picks and posts.

Don't forget to take a look at the full list of upcoming workshops, presentations and demonstrations below.  Give us a call at 613-445-5214 to book your spot!

See you at the store!
