It is the bright side of Spring today. With such an early Easter, the greenhouse nursery growers have retail operations open. We saw Sunshine Express last week, and today we see the growing greenhouses of Seaway Gardens. They are located on Lakeshore Road, on the east side of the canal. I mention this for those of you who want to check out the bargains at Seaway. Flats of pansies are 3 for $30.00 or $10.99 each.
This first picture shows you just one of the many greenhouses of hanging pots. In the second picture, I want you to notice the top photo of the lavender-coloured chair in the lavender field. This is a picture by Marjorie Wallace, an artist I know from redbubble. You can see the picture on her site here. I've seen it in all the garden centres, so this is a great licensing sale for Marjorie.
You may be asking the question: When will the orchards bloom? When should I drive to Niagara to see the blossoms? Here is what they look like now, as you pull out of the Seaway parking lot and look towards the Lake. The colour is showing on the branches. My guess is we'll see our orchards in bloom for our normal Mother's Day celebration.
