CORNERSTONE GARDENS STILL GROWING!

Hello from Cornerstone Gardens. We are still here and still growing! Florida will have to wait. We have out done ourselves this year. The greenhouses are literally overflowing and we should not run out of your favorite plant this year. We are still growing unusual varieties that no one else grows. You know how it is, you get the seed catalog in December and everything looks great! Check out our page of new varieties. Looking forward to seeing all your friendly faces this year. Happy Gardening!

Mike and Carmella Berardesca

 

 

 

 

 

My Favorites for the Garden. . . .

 

Let me tell you about some of my favorite things that we trialed in the garden last year. Angelonia Serena and Butterfly Pentas were used in mixed planters around the patio. They bloomed all summer with no trouble. Try them! You and the butterflies will love them! The Gypsophila Gypsy is wonderful in mixed containers. It adds an airy pink mist to combination planters. If you have not tried any of our annual grasses please, please try them. You won’t be disappointed. The three we have tried and loved are Wind Dancer, Ruby Grass, and Savannah. I know they look like plain ordinary grass in the pots when you buy them, but the Ruby and Savannah will reward you with pink plumes, survive the heat and drought, and will need very little care in your garden. Wind Dancer will do the same with a blue hue. It is even half hardy so it may just come back next year. Everyone loved Euphorbia Diamond Frost last year, and we have grown double the amount this year.

 

Our Proven Winner® baskets are breathtaking this year!
