Garden looking borning? Stop by Johnnye Merle's and bring home some new treasues!

Just in this week:

Sweet peas! Yes, it's time to plant, and we have a good selection of some COOL varieties, including the new "Almost Black" from Annie's Annuals. It's pretty awesome, and only $3!!!



We've also got this cool plant in  - spooky for your post Halloween garden, and great texture! Cobweb Thistle is a great unusual addition to any garden, adding some spikes and great color!
Lots of salvias and other herbs; including Salvia Apiana, a California must have and scared plant for many Native American tribes.

We are very excited about this super cool, new addition - Elsholtzia sautonii 'Mint Shrub'. We LOVE the pink flower on this!  It's a pretty rare shrub, growing to about four feet or so, from northern China! Only $5 each!




Salvia argentea is another favorite - look at that foliage, those big, soft, gray leaves are amazing! And the bloom this salvia gets is impressive too! We have them in four inch containers for just $4!









Other awesome plants? FALL POPPIES! All sorts of cool ones, including some of our favorites, like "ladybird" poppy and Papaver "Black Swan" and "Naughty Nineties". Now is THE perfect time to plant poppies, ensuring you have some great late winter/early spring color.

All of our poppies - and most of our plants in general!  - are just $3 or $4 each!

We hope to see you this weekend! Keep your eye on next week too - we'll have a big order of cool succulents and sedums coming in!
