| Annuals suggested for specific situations (sun, shade, windowboxes etc) New or unusual annuals are a particular interest of mine, and I grow many of these from seed. I am happy to help problem solve, answer questions about maintenance, and guide you to sources of unusual plants. | Available

| I've been gardening for over 30 years. I like flowers and annuals are my favorites, mainly because they bloom all summer and they are a good filler between perennials. Perennials grown too close together are hard to weed, besides annuals give color when the perennial is not in bloom. I am a zone 3 gardener. Through hands on experience I have learned about soil preparation, pests and diseases, and which plants to use for sun or shade. I know the requirements to grow healthy plants from seed and keep them that way. I also know about cold frames, greenhouses and how to create and which plants to use to make an attractive arrangement in planters. | Available

| Decisions, decisions... If you can't make up your mind which Annuals to grow, yu're not alone. Frankly I don't blame you! A problem with your new flowering Annuals flats? I`ve been there done that. Petunias, Sweet Alyssum, Larkspur, Marine Blue Lobelia -- they all grow back at my house on Garden Street. Cutting and Cottage Gardens, White Gardens and Night Gardens, I`ve done them all. Annuals are the perfect summer flower, June through fall's first frost. I can`t speak on Cactus or tender tropical plants -- they don`t grow outside in my Zone 7; I`m no Farmer -- so I can`t guide you on Fruits and Vegetables. But whether it`s an Annual you want to start from seed, mail-order or pick up at your local garden center, I`ll help you grow amazing blooms this summer. Everyone will be asking, "Hey, did you see that garden?" Together, we can turn your neighbors green with envy. | Available
