A SUCCESSFUL DAY!

We had a very successful day yesterday at the Spring Fling at The ARC.  We sold a lot of plants and was very tired when we got home, but it was a good tired after a good day!

SPRING FEVER

Apple Blossoms

Spring is definitely in the air!  The weather has been beautiful and we have had many people here purchasing plants.  The big seller has to be the fruit trees which are beginning to bloom.


All of our fruit trees have a low chill hour requirement which means that the trees must have a certain number of hours below 45 degrees in order to produce fruit.  Every fruit tree that we carry will produce fruit year after year in our area.  Since we guarantee all of our plants, we do not sell anything that will not grow and/or produce fruit in our area.


We have had many people want citrus trees.  We do not carry any citrus trees because unless you have a greenhouse and can control the temperature during the winter, the citrus trees can not withstand our winters, especially when we have a really cold winter like we have just experienced.  Even though we are a licensed nursery and inspected by the state of Florida we do not sell citrus because we refuse to sell anything that we do not feel is compatible with our weather.  The economy is bad enough without us selling something that we feel our customers would just be throwing their money away on.


We truly appreciate all the people that have purchased plants from us and look forward to meeting your landscaping requirements in the future.  We have been extremely blessed with a prosperous winter season and spring is looking even better.  Thank you and may God bless you.
