MY FAVORITE GIVEAWAYS: LET’S GO PLANT SHOPPING!

May 1, 2015

It’s the final day of my favorite giveaways and I want to thank you for participating this week. If you haven’t already entered to win all the great items I’m giving away, you still can. I’m leaving every giveaway open for a week from when they began, but just enter them all now and then sit back and wait to win.

If you didn’t catch them all, here’s what you missed:

Monday: The Perfect Garden Hose
Tuesday: A.M. Leonard Deluxe Soil Knife
Wednesday: Authentic Haven Brand’s Manure Tea
Thursday: Sneeboer Ladies’ Spade from Garden Tool Co.

And today I’m keeping it simple and I’m giving away a $50 gift certificate to one of my favorite nurseries. The winner can choose from a gift certificate from one of these nurseries:

Klehm’s Song Sparrow Nursery
Brushwood Nursery
Plants Delight Nursery

Roy Klehm of Klehm’s Song Sparrow Nursery checking boxes at one of their few open days at the nursery. It was a great shopping trip but most of the time I just order off the website. 

I’ve been thrilled with the plants I’ve received from these nurseries, which all also have excellent, interesting collections of plants and I think you’ll be happy with them too.

Lots of ways to win below. For your first entry, all you have to do is log in and click. More entry options are available after that for the more ambitious among you. I’ll pick a winner next Friday!

Both Klehm’s and Brushwood have excellent clematis selections. This is one of my favorites: Guernsey Cream.

    Margaret Roach had a blog post recently about darmera peltuta. I remember her discussing it a few years ago as well, and I've wanted to try it since then. I don't know that I have the exact right conditions for it, but that hasn't stopped me before. Thanks for the great giveaways this week!

    Love shopping from Plants Delight, since they're just a dozen miles or so from us and everything they grow will grow in our yard. Good luck to everyone!

    Great plant nurseries. It wasn't until I started blogging that I was brave enough to get plants mail order. Now I have some really cool plants that are unique to my market. Even tried some that shouldn't work here but I am growing them : )

    I'd love a new clematis. Mine got dug up by accident a few years ago but I haven't found a good replacement. I'm itching to get one this year so much that I've dreamt about it.

When choosing plants for a container I think it’ When choosing plants for a container I think it’s best to start with one “hero” plant. It can fill any role in the container, but it should be the one that’s non-negotiable in your mind. The one you love the most. Then work from there to decide what plants you need to make the design work. For me, and in particular when it comes to this urn in the middle of my patio garden bed, which is a riot of color and texture that borders on chaotic, texture is the key. So I designed this container with an out-of-box hero plant (Lemony Lace elderberry) and then chose a few other plants to create a simple but bold design that will stand out from everything happening around it. See the whole design and how I chose the plants in my video today (easy link in stories).

The other night I looked out and saw it full of blooms (well, more than it’s ever had) and immediately made myself a bouquet. To be honest they are almost too fragrant. I need to have a window open to have them inside or it’s full-on Yankee candle (an apt description borrowed from a friend). I absolutely love them in this mustard vase from @wakefield_handmade
