Carol Yee of Carol's Collectibles Nursery Has Passed Away


It is with great sadness that Carol's Collectibles Nursery shares the passing of their great friend, gardening mentor, and plantswoman supreme, Carol Yee. She left this life on June 19th after a short illness, but will forever live on in our heats and gardens. Carol’s Collectibles Nursery will be closed for at least a week. They will post updates about reopening plans on their Facebook page. As Carol might have said, the rain has come, the sun will shine and now is the best time to plant,” so get out there in the garden roll, up your sleeves and plant one for Carol. A celebration of Carol's life is in the works for later in the summer.
