Beautiful petunia windowboxes grown by Jim in Birch Bay!

Jim has matched the petunias in his windowboxes to the ones in his hanging baskets.

Great job, Jim! These look absolutely gorgeous!

Ernie has sent us pictures of his 2009 hanging baskets! Way to go, Ernie!

Ernie uses MiracleGro to feed his baskets each year and it has proven to makes his baskets beautiful each time! Beautiful basket, Ernie!

Linda from Blaine sent us these wonderful photos of her yard. This one shows her creative use of recycled containers and non-stop begonias!

Linda took advantage of her shady areas by planting begonias, which thrive in shady conditions.

The beautiful salix willow "Hakuro Nishiki' in tree form makes for a wonderful accent in Linda's landscaping.

Linda's patio area showing off the gorgeous colors of her begonias!

A nice place to sit and enjoy the beauty of nature!

Linda used one of our wheelbarrow basket holders to show off some patriotic color by her mailbox!

Mugho pines, hostas, boxwoods and more have been incorporated into this beautiful landscaping!

Ernie in Bellingham sent us a wonderful photo of his 18" Lynden (Victorian) Basket he purchased in 2007. Look at all the gorgeous blooms!

Ernie says 'You can't beat a combination like the Van Wingerden Lynden Baskets and Miracle Gro Plant Food!'

Ingrid from Blaine sent us these beautiful photos of her flowerboxes!

Ingrid and her husband won 'Yard of the Week' through the local newspaper this past summer. From looking at the photos, we can see why!

Carol in Birch Bay shared these photos of her hanging baskets that she purchased at the garden center. Don't they look great?

Carol has taken excellent care of her baskets, extending their season into late in the summer. She has taken care to deadhead the geraniums and water and fertilize regularly.

Front Porch Package Gallery

Last year we started a new promotion called the 'Front Porch Package'.  This package contained a scarecrow, 1/2 bale of straw, pumpkins, a bundle of cornstalks, and two 6" mums.  In 2007 we saw this promotion really take off - we sold over 100 of these packages!!  This page gives you an idea of what some people have done with the package.  Click on the individual photos for a larger view of each photo.

Sandie in Blaine did a wonderful job decorating her front porch with our package! Turns out her neighbors all liked it so well that they came in and bought one too!

Kandi, Jeff & Laurel in Ferndale turned this into a family project!

Kandi, Jeff & Laurel in Ferndale added an extra scarecrow and pumpkins to their display, but said our package was the tool they needed to jump-start their creativity!

Mary Ann from Custer sent us this photo of her grandaughter Emma posing in her Halloween costume alongside some of the items she purchased that were available in our Fall promotions. What a great picture!
