Sproutbox system - custom configuration for this client. On the R is a Cherry tree, rated as hardy to zone 3, which can overwinter in a raised container garden in our climate. It has put on explosive growth in the sunny site, and yielded many blossoms, and fruit even in its first year of planting. It is self-fertilizing, so a second cherry tree is not required, which is optimal, given the tight spacing in this back yard.

Newly remodeled home lacked excitement on the exterior. Front porch had wiggly step and empty area below kitchen window. Front lawn was fertilized and trees were trimmed, base of trees framed with border and stones. Black garage door and shutters replaced/shutters painted white. Deck added with step across entire front. New lighting and pebble stone area added in front of new deck with patio furniture to sit out and relax. Curb appeal is dramatic and neighbors stop now to enjoy!

Spring Sonata™ is in perfect tune with today’s gardens. It offers dense growth, glossy green foliage, and a massive display of white flowers in spring. Growing 4 feet high and 5 feet wide, Spring Sonata™ blooms 2 to 3 weeks later than other Indian hawthornes, extending the bloom season. In fall and winter, dark purple fruit cover the plant, adding welcome color. Use it in foundation plantings, mixed borders, or containers.

Healthy plants are happy plants. Full and vibrant.
Almost any vegetable, flower, herb, shrub, or small tree can grow successfully in a container. Select plants to suit the climate and the amount of sun or shade the container will receive. Use your imagination, and combine upright and trailing plants, edibles, and flowers for pleasing and colorful effects. Container gardening can be enjoyed for one season and discarded, or designed to last for years.
