We've cleaned out the greenhouse (and boy was it dirty! Look at that pile of dirt!) to get a fresh start for 2025. The first phase of the germination room is up and soon we'll start filling it with lots of planted trays and watch for the new babies to grow. We would have finished the project sooner but the snow was calling... ☺️☃️ ![A few beautiful, wintery photos of the nursery.]()

Here are photos of some of the frost flowers we found last weekend. We just love them! Most of them we found on the dittany (Cunila origanoides) in the wall garden. We also found some on the stems we've already cut back in our potted plants. These species include: willowleaf sunflower (Helianthus salicifolius), purple daisy aster (Symphyotrichum patens), hairy mountain mint (Pycnanthemum verticillatum), Bradbury bee balm (Monarda bradburiana), blue sage (Salvia azurea), slender mountain mint (Pycnanthemum tenuifolium), and ox-eye sunflower (Heliopsis helianthoides). ![Frost flowers!!!!

Frost flowers!!!! Get out early and look for these beautiful natural forms before they melt. We have found them on dittany and downy skullcap but you may find them on other plants too. ![This perfect little beauty is singing to us today as we work to get the plants prepped for winter....]()

When you're growing plants in pots and they get transplanted at all different times of the year sometimes you experience some strange behaviors, like this starry campion (Silene stellata) blooming in November. So pretty! ![The sun is setting on another wonderful Sow Wild Natives season. Thank you all for your tremendous...]()
The sun is setting on another wonderful Sow Wild Natives season. Thank you all for your tremendous support. We look forward to seeing you again after our winter slumber. ![It's the last open weekend of the year! While you're here, check out the new bumblebee garden that...]()
It's the last open weekend of the year! While you're here, check out the new bumblebee garden that we've started planting along the north edge (just across the path from the sensory garden). We're so excited to add this new garden to the landscape palette and support even more of our critter friends.
We're open Friday and Saturday 9AM-4PM.
