Who else loves fresh cherry pie? Jam? 🙋♀️ Did you know you can grow your own sour cherry trees in Manitoba to harvest the fruit yourself? Sour cherries are the perfect combination of tart + sweet, making them great for baking and preserving! 🍒
Depending on the variety, these trees can yield up to 4-10lbs of fruit per tree, which means plenty for sharing (or not 😉) once the tree has matured!
Visit our nursery to explore the varieties you can plant + get started on making your own cherry treats.
Weekend Hours:

Can you spot the differences? These three rare philodendrons are known as the Triple Crown among plant enthusiasts, due to their similarities but also their unique differences! 🌿🌿🌿
👸 White Princess has a more compact growth habit and features slightly thinner leaves with white, splashy variegation and some patches. The best way to tell a White Princess apart from the other two is by looking at the stem. The stem will be bright green with some pink and white colouring!
🧙♂️ On the other hand, White Wizard is more of a climber, and needs something to latch onto to grow huge leaves. Wizard has white variegation that develops in large patches, and is rarely speckled. The stem of Wizard is only green and white.
⚔️ Last, but certainly not least is the White Knight! The biggest giveaway for the White Knight are it's dark purple or burgundy stems. As the most variegated of the three, the leaves can have large patches of white and speckled patterns, sometimes even putting out all white leaves!
Can you figure out which is which? We only have a select few of these beauties left, come check them out in store for a closer look or order online!

Say hello to a whirlwind of a plant: the Hurricane Bird's Nest Fern! This air purifying beauty is one of our favourite ferns for kitchens and bathrooms, with the spiraling growth habit + glossy green leaves creating a vibrant display.
As a fern, there are a few key care tips that will help your plant thrive:
🌿 A humid environment is a must! Without enough humidity, the foliage will become dry and crispy.
🌿 The Hurricane Birds Nest is a shade seeker and will do best in medium, indirect light. Keep it away from bright sunlight.
🌿 Water from the edges and not in the centre of the spiral. This is like the eye of the storm, and can wreak havoc and cause root rot if it gets too wet.
Want to learn more? Our most recent blog delves deeper into the care needs of a Hurricane Birds Nest Fern, with troubleshooting + helpful tips! 😄

Hate mosquitoes? Bats are about to become your new best friends! 🦇Read on to see how it all works:
• Bats will eat up to 1200 insect per hour, especially mosquitos! How awesome is that?
• Bugs want nothing to do with bats. At all. Once insects start hearing bats flying around, they'll leave the area as soon as they can!
• Bats help to pollinate plants at nighttime by spreading pollen as they fly from plant to plant eating up bugs.
• Since bats are nocturnal, we will rarely see or hear them. You won’t notice the bats, but you will notice the bugs disappearing!
Ready to ditch harsh insect control chemicals and add a Bat House to your yard? Visit us in the garden store! We'd love to answer any questions you have + help you get your natural insect control journey started. 😄
