Houseplants can be both the gateway to gardening as well as a way to celebrate plants, even when the weather has gone cold for the season. Decorating with houseplants can last all year-round and some houseplants are even specific to the season of holiday cheer that we are in right now!
Nothing says “seasons greetings” like brightly colored blooms throughout your home. Holiday bulbs are the perfect way to both easily decorate as well as stun your guests with blazing colors. Blooming bulbs are a bit unassuming at first, but they will reward you with weeks of intrigue and beauty throughout the holiday season. During this time of year, our all-time favorites here at the garden center tend to be amaryllis and paperwhite bulbs.
There are just so many ways to decorate for the holidays and we don’t like to limit ourselves to just one or two looks, especially when there are so many beautiful choices to pick from! At our Annual McDonald Garden Center Christmas Shoppe, we like to provide inspirational new ideas as well as collaborations that could go with your already established holiday decor.
It’s finally here...the spookiest time of the year! Halloween is almost upon us and it is time to prepare for all the little ghouls and goblins that come to your porch expecting goodies for their all-hallows-eve haul. If you have been watching Mike, the Garden Guru’s seminars, you will already have your fall porch primped and prepped for the hoards of family and friends to visit you this season.
Pansies are such a perfect companion for fall containers, landscapes, and all types of porch and patio decor. With so many varieties available at the garden center, it is close to impossible to make a decision on what the perfect color or combination is best for your fall look this year. What does your horoscope tell you? Should you go bold today? Maybe a softer look will fit your theme better?
