It's Planting Thyme at The Camellia, Thunder Bay.


 What are you planting today? How about this moss Wreath with Air plants? I don't know about you, but I am so far behind with seeding and planting. The weeds have taken over my perennial beds, and the poor flowers are buried in the weeds. Sigh..





 Looking forward to fresh Strawberries , which apparently will not be ready until mid-July.






 Just planted some of this - Kangaroo Paw. Does great in a sunny location, and doesn't like a lot of water.






Happy planting, and weeding ( and swatting of blackflies and other assorted bugs )..!
Visit us at the Camellia, we are Open Wed. 11-5, Thurs. Noon-7, Fri. 11-6. Sat. 11-5. Sun. 12-5.

Paulusma's Greenhouses, Thunder Bay, ON



I was going for a walk today, tromping along in the recent snow that we've had. Has anyone noticed how long it's staying light in the evenings now?

Yes, Summer and Gardening season is coming! And we are kind of happy to see the snow, as we can't garden without water.

Here are some photos from one of my favourite Greenhouses - Paulusma's .







Did I mention I love Kangaroo Paw? A native of Australia, I think, it has flowers that last forever. They are so sculptural and add line and form to an arrangement.




They come in all colours, and you can get the potted plants at Paulusma's. They like to stay dry, so don't over water.







There is always a large selection of tuberous Begonias in every colour.




If you like different plants, go to Paulusma's Greenhouses at 204 Belton Rd. Phone (807)767-7150. Call ahead to check hours.
