The long weekend is fast approaching which means the 'official' start to the gardening season! So break out your trowels, gloves and empty patio pots if you haven't already (don't worry, we understand that some of us have been eager) and dig in!
The greenhouse is bursting with colour: vibrant perennials, outstanding annuals and amazing hanging baskets are on display. Herbs and veggies are in stock (with new USDA certified organic selections) and are just waiting to be planted. Azaleas and crabapples are in full bloom and the lilac buds will be opening shortly. It's easy to be inspired!
If you have not-so-inspiring grub-related issues, the solution has arrived - our first shipment of Nematodes is now available for purchase in store. Nematodes are actually microscopic insects that feed on other lawn pests for completely natural grub control. $29.99 for a box that will cover 2000-3000 square feet.
We also have some more great specials for you this week:
Magic Carpet Spirea: regular $19.99 now $12.99. This is a great accent shrub with shades of yellow to crimson foliage, and pink flowers. Get them while they last!
Perennial Bergenia: regular $11.99 now $7.88. A reliable perennial for a partially shaded garden. Glossy green leaves and spikes of small pink flowers in semi-globular heads appear in spring. Foliage turns crimson red in the fall for added late-season interest.
Finally, we have established a new Customer Appreciation Program this year in the form of a biweekly email newsletter. Sign up to receive advance notifications of specials, events and timely gardening tips right to your inbox. Signing up also grants you access to a PKN email address that is exclusive for CAP subscribers so you'll be even better able to reach us for questions or advice.

So come check out our colour, great plants and always inspirational atmosphere, and keep doing your part to stay Green for Life.
