With much of the snow melted and spring in full swing, many people are eager to get their gardens and flower beds started. Lynn's Plants and Things in Benito has been preparing for this year's gardening season, and things have been growing at full speed.
"The greenhouse has been buzzing with planting flowers, herbs, and vegetables, ordering new and old favorites including succulents and perennials, organizing and brainstorming containers and workshops, and most of all working to ensure our customers have an amazing and heartwarming experience," said Lynn Coupland. Coupland notes that every year, there are certain plants and flowers that are in high demand or popular with gardeners.
"Container planting can be challenging due to a lack of knowledge and understanding of what plants go together. Please do not hesitate to ask staff questions, as they are always there to help. Or you can come to a workshop usually scheduled in the evenings to design your planter with a helping hand. Check the Lynn's Plants & Things Facebook page for dates or call.
"Another option can be to drop off your containers, or buy new containers and let staff design and plant them with your colour choices or your favourite flowers," said Coupland. "Be flexible and willing to adjust your plans as needed, especially in response to weather conditions or unforeseen problems."
