Plant fall bulbs for spring color! 🌷 A colorfu

Plant fall bulbs for spring color! 🌷A colorful spring garden of tulips and daffodils requires planning and planting in October and November. Our spring bulbs are arriving now and are available to purchase in the Garden Store where our selection will be at its very best in October and November. Bulbs can be planted in a succession of color by choosing varieties around specific bloom times. This information is located on the backside of the bulb bags. Besides daffodils and tulips, we carry sought after varieties of galanthus, bearded iris, hyacinths, narcissus, and crocus. Giant alliums, which bloom in the Schoolhouse Gardens during the summer months, are one of the most asked about flowers in the garden and this is the time to plant them along with the bulbs mentioned above. They are only available as bulbs this time of year, so we kindly remind you to plant your spring garden now. It is a pleasant surprise come spring when you have forgotten exactly what you planted, and you’re surprised when early spring blossoms of yellow, purple, pink, orange and white give you great hope for the spring to follow.#fallisforplanting #fallbulbsspringflowers #tulips🌷 #daffodils #crocus

It’s been a great weekend and we want to thank everyone who came out to support our Skagit Valley Giant Pumpkin Festival. We watched 11 giants roll in, danced to live music, went on tractor rides, ate sweets and sipped on coffee while pumpkins were carefully weighed. Let’s just say, the scales tipped at 1,614.00 lbs, with Joel Holland’s giant pumpkin grown out of Sumner, WA. Joel is a master pumpkin grower who has won first place a few years here at the Nursery. We want to thank our wonderful sponsors including, @skagitfoodcoop, @tractorsupply, and @coastalfarm for their generous donations toward this wonderful festival 🎃The pumpkins will be available for viewing here at the Nursery for the next week or two before they head to our sponsors, so swing by and experience these giants for yourself.
