Happy 4th of July

In 1776, John Adams suggested that the 4th of July be celebrated with pomp and parade, games, sports, guns, bonfires and illuminations from one end of the country to the other. Hope you have a wonderful 4th with family and friends.

Miniature Fairy Gardens

Create your own miniature garden! We carry a wide assortment of all the accessories you need to create a little garden haven. This one was planted in an old tin antique picnic basket but you can use just about anything that will hold dirt. An old basket, suitcase or even a drawer would make a great container. Add a trellis, chairs, benches, fencing and paving stones. Then for finishing touches: beeskeps, birdhouses, urns, birdbaths, and even little garden tools. Choose plants according to whether you plan to keep it in shade or sun This one features angel vine on the trellis and a fern. In the small urn is a little sprig of hen and chicks which doesn't require much soil. This is a great project to do with kids or grandkids this summer. It also makes a great gift!

Rosemary, Ivy and Angel Vine topiaries! You will love these! We have several different styles to choose from including trellises, spirals, domes, rings and of course hearts. Or purchase a plant and topiary form separately and try your hand at creating your own!

Bring a friend and enjoy the Indianola Quilt and Garden Tour coming up June 7th. Here is your opportunity to visit several local area gardens and enjoy quilts artfully displayed at each one.

Well the day is finally here! The Garden Barn opens for spring debut on Apr. 3rd. I wanted to give you a sneak preview of some of the new products that I have in. I have been collecting vintage treasures over the winter as well as unpacking shipments from our Pennsylvania buying trip.


These mushrooms are a fun addition to your miniature fairy gardens. We carry a great selection of miniature garden accessories such as chairs, benches, trellises, little garden tools, and watering cans. Mushrooms can also be tucked in a niche in your flowerbed, patio or container gardens.

Vintage seed packs and botanical prints of flowers and ferns and bird nests by Morris, Pratt and Lowe will bring a touch of nature indoors.

Inspirational word stones have been very popular and make a great gift. Trellises and garden sculptures can add an artistic touch to your garden or yard. I also have in a great selection of Guy Wolff pottery, mossy pots and cast iron urns. I'm sure many of us can hardly wait to start gardening again.
