Spring is here and its time to plant seeds. This year we have a slightly expanded selection. Its growing every year. We specialize
in easy to grow items for the novice gardener. Plants that can take
tough conditions like drought, poor soil, heat and some shade. Things
that need little maintenance and aftercare.
We also offer an expanding selection of herbs. Many of these also fall into the easy to grow tough plants category, we also strive for deer resitant plants as much as possible.

White Clover (Trifolium repens)
Bird's Foot Trefoil (Lotus corniculatus)
Add this to your lawn and stop having to fertilze it. Clover fixes nitrogen which helps your grass. If you want less maintenance and a greener ‘lawn’ this is a must. More info.
More about natural lawns.
Tolerates heat and drought extremely well and also fixes nitrogen so it helps fertilize the plants around it. Trefoil is a low growing bushy plant that also tolerates foot traffic and cutting very well making it an ideal plant for walkways and inclusion in a lawn, or an interesting border plant. Great for hot dry areas.
