The drive was scenic and relaxing. We were welcomed by a Keurig coffeemaker and some awesome Green Mountain coffee. This hit the spot on a 45 degree, overcast, windy day in May. The well-organized nursery is filled to the brim with unique gifts and gardening needs in addition to annuals and perennials.
I purchased a lightweight pitchfork, and a Mammoth Yellow Quill garden mum, hybridized by the University of Minnesota to withstand -30 degree winters. Of course I couldn't walk away without a daylily memento. I bought "Moussaka" (Heemskerk, 2011) a 22" white with a ruffled purple edge. I can be assured that both of these plants will acclimate easily to my garden. A very enjoyable day!
