One of our first ever Customers gave us complete design freedom for their yard even though we said “we really don’t enjoy design.”

She insisted she trusted our judgment so we kept it simple: each box is a different native plant. Blue Flag Iris, Purple Coneflower, Mountain Mint, Swamp Milkweed, and then a final box that is mixed Switchgrass, Broomsedge, and Seaside Goldenrod. As time goes on, the plants will move around each other (or maybe they won’t) and form a slopeside meadow.

The three Sweetbay Magnolias in the center (“Larry, Moe, and Curly”) have Coastal Joe Pye planted between them that is still waking up.

We plan to install signage this year and expand the shrub hedge row in the background.

Wood Chips. Rocks. Raised Beds. And Shrubby St John’s Wort.

Who needs a lawn?

This is one of our first customers who gave us complete creative control over their front yard. Their major ask was: I don’t want to mow the lawn. We delivered.

Not shown are the five distinct garden beds along the slope to the drainage ditch featuring a different pollinator in each one.

The best part about this plant is that every time I see it I can only mentally say it’s name like Elton John sings “Philadelphia Freedom”.

Notes about upcoming plant sales & weather:

The Colonial Beach and MGACRA Plant Sale in Stafford are both INDOORS so you won’t have to worry about being rained out!

Additionally, and an evergreen comment from us but especially important given today’s election: our plant sales are a politics and election free zone. If you are discussing politics or the election loud enough for me to hear it, you’ll be asked to leave. The same goes for wearing candidate and campaign shirts.

We are SUPER excited for the diversity and volume of plants at these sales and want them to be the focus!

If you’re an “I shop my values,” person you are free to DM me and I’ll be happy to soapbox the laundry list of business and community standards we support.

Enjoy the planting weather!
