Waterwise Botanicals

Took a walk around north slope in the drizzle yesterday afternoon. Thought I would share a peek at our growing grounds with you...the magic that makes landscapes.

Vines can be a "divine" way to add interest to an arbor, patio, fence or trellis. Here are a few we have in 5 gallon sizes to add just the right touch of happiness to your garden or landscape.

"Bonsai is a contemplative art that attracts many people through its purity of form, connection to nature, and the simple, intuitive exchange that can take place between bonsai trees and those care for them". This is a quote from Philosophy of a bonsai plant! Maybe during our current stressful times, we all need our own bonsai to nurture and care for...in turn bringing us peace and a connection to nature. Tom is creating some new bonsai specimens for up front here at WB available now with more to come!

Echeveria 'Neon Breakers' with its plumy/pink and grey "rumble of color" is looking so pretty backdropped by the bright green Aeoniums edging the entrance of the Shade House! Come and take a look...we just got in some assorted succulents for our tables too. our Shade House.

Loves full sun and is water-wise. Hardy to 0 degrees. Come and see for yourself here at WB! Available in 5 gallon size. I can just picture it in a front yard landscape leading the eye to the entrance .
