"Mary, Mary, quite contrary, how does your garden grow?"
Well, I don't know about Mary's garden, but our flower gardens are growing quite well this summer. Anyone interested in small bunches - pic below (cash & carry $15 + ) of fresh flowers for the weekend? Please let me know the day before so I can cut fresh stems. Can put in a vase and deliver for additional charges.

If you remember, back on June 1st, I stated it was time for a change or two. Well, the first big change came when we got the 2nd cooler in on June 12th. The 2nd change is that Reese constructed a 3rd flower work counter.

It was apparent back during Mother's Day week that it made it difficult for the 3 of us (me - Janice Fuller , Cara Stephens & Katelyn McCleave ) to work at the same time when we didn't have enough work space. And since the majority of our sales for each month is for floral, it just made sense that we add a 3rd counter. (To be clear - the counter that has the garden painted on the front is one of the older counters. And former owner, Nancy Knoblett painted that scene back in 2001.)
I still have some minor things to finish. Hope all is done by Labor Day.

If you are in need of flowers, balloons, PopCandy arrangements or plants for any occasion, please stop in at 210 S. Main Street, Palestine, IL or call us at 618-586-2444 to see how we can help you!
