All our wisdom is stored in the trees.

- Santosh Kalwar

In honor of Arbor Day, Mitch Pyles, our tree and shrub buyer extraordinaire, has picked out his top 3 trees:

Golden Raindrops crabapple makes a great lawn and street tree, and with its mature height of only 20', it's a fine choice for planting below power lines. Because of its tolerance of different soil conditions, it also works well in city locations.

The October Glory maple tree’s striking orange and red leaves start to show in early October and will last for several weeks. The fantastic foliage is likely to outlast other deciduous trees by a noticeable length of time. The warm, bold colors will give your garden or outside spaces a truly exquisite sense of beauty. Your backyard will be the envy of the neighbors. 

This fast growing tree will provide shade within a few years. Up to 2 feet of growth per year! Red Sunset maple trees have a nice pyramidal form and over time they start to round on the top. The leaves turn orange-red in the fall and make this maple one of the best trees for fall color.

Monrovia California plants are HERE!!

A sneak peak at some of the beauties that came our way.

and in the Gift Shop we welcome a new product of hand creams and liquid soaps in nummy, nummy fragrances...

Blithe and Bonny is a mother and daughter owned and operated small batch bath and body company in Happy Valley, Oregon. Since 2009, we have worked hard to hand-make beautiful, delicious smelling products with high quality ingredients and sustainable packaging. We are constantly searching out and learning about better, more eco-conscious options, and we are always willing and ready to improve our ingredients, packaging, sourcing and processes to do as much as we can to ensure the health of our bodies and our planet.

Oh, the sweet intoxicating smell of daphne.

It's a fragrance that compels one to draw in closer and closer.

Romans linked their gods to plants and flowers. When Apollo pursued Daphne, her father saved her by turning her into a laurel tree. Apollo in his grief declares, “With your leaves, my victors shall wreath their brows.” Daphne is the symbol for immortality, while the laurel symbolizes victory.

Daphne odora on the left, was featured in our 2022 Flourish magazine. It's a shade loving daphne. The two pictured above are sun loving.

Just so you are in the know, we are fully stocked on shade and sun loving daphnes!

I daphne don't know why you wouldn't want one!!
