We are busy doing and scheduling winter clean-ups.  Call us  774-6981.  It’s good to get some of the winter debris off to allow the sun to warm the soil, and remove any overwintering disease spores and insect eggs.  Compost if you can.  It is also a good time to make perennial divisions if you have large clumps or overgrown plants.   Pansies, onions, and potatoes, and early spring seeds are all in stock.  Stop in and see us!

Spring has sprung, we think…. We’ll be open daily now!  Stop out and see us, or call to set up a site consultation 774-6981. Note our new e-mail address: lockesgreensideup@yahoo.com.  Should you want to contact Chuck Annable personally please use: campusvideo@yahoo.com.  See you soon!

It’s time to get started!
Get a jump on the season by starting these plants indoors.

We got to plant over 60 trees this fall. I love planting trees! I am thankful for the folks that asked us to do it for them. Not only is it fun work, it is immensely satisfying thinking of that tree in the future, shading the earth and making oxygen long after I have quit breathing.

‘Tis the season to bring a tree inside and adorn it with lights.
We have 51 lovely Firs and Pines for sale (actually only 48 now…), and they smell terrific.
We will be open Thu-Sun 12-5 (Saturday 9-5). We have fresh wreaths, swags, door charms, and centerpieces; Poinsettia, Cyclamen, Christmas Cactus, Paperwhite Narcissus, and Amaryllis (hopefully some orchids, too).
Monica has been baking, so we have cookies every day, and hot chocolate on the weekends. (beer or wine for Mom & Dad)
