Fall is coming and we have pansies, mums & Fall blooming perennials.  Come in soon for the best selection.  Fall is an excellent time to plant perennials.  They’ll establish over winter & come up FULL FORCE next Spring.

Time to plant: Broccoli, Cauliflower, Cabbage, Misc. greens for Fall & Winter Harvest

Coming Soon:  Spring Blooming Bulbs

                            Onion Sets & Seed Garlic

Tip:  plant grape hyacinths with your tulips.  The grape hyacinths will come up first and you can see where your tulip bulbs are planted.

 

Hope y’all are having a wonderful summer. 

Our garden’s doing great (except for the powdery mildew on Pumpkins)  How’s your garden doing?

Yes!  It is time to plant for Fall Harvested vegetables.  We have starts available & Bruce is planting seeds today for the next batch. 

    Here at the home garden we just planted carrot seeds & prepped a bed for our Broccoli, etc. 

    Part of the plan is to plant some more cilantro, lettuce & parsley soon.

 

Also – Start thinking Bulbs!  #Tulips, #Daffodils, Fall #Crocus, etc. will be coming in Sept.  Paperwhites in October. 

    Watch for future posts with tips from Granny Organic for planting bulbs.

 

Have you heard the rumor? Yes, it is true.  Joanne & Bruce are ready to pass on Commonwealth Garden Shoppe to a new owner, so, yes, the business is for sale.  Business only – not the property.  Go to the following link & contact our Realtor for more information.  Also, feel welcome to share this info.
