Hi there fellow gardeners! How can summer be over already???? It’s just not fair! Oh, but we do love the fall season. Time to get excited for change. That’s always invigorating. Mums, ornamental cabbage and kale, ornamental peppers, Montauk Daisies, etc. will be here tomorrow, and the daffodil and tulip bulbs, etc. are heading this way in a week or so (as soon as they get off the boat from the Netherlands, literally). It’s like Christmas when they arrive! Store hours: For Labor Day weekend, we will be open our usual Saturday (9:00–5:00) and Sunday (10:00-4:00) hours. ... View Article

Howdy! Can you believe it’s coming to an end??? There’s still a lot to do outside, so you better get out there if we get some sun and no wind. It’s not fun being out there in the snow putting away the hose. Trim your Hydrangeas. Need advice? Go to our facebook page Huntree Nursery and watch Cindy prune Bigleaf Hydrangeas, PG Hydrangeas, and Butterfly Bushes the right way. Click on the videos and see how to do it. Cut back all perennials to the ground. Shorten the long branches of roses this fall so they’re not waving around in... View Article

Hi There! Hope you are enjoying this lovely summer weather! Fortunately, Mother Nature hasn’t sent us drought. We are looking lush from the lovely rains. Yay!Looking for screening plant material in the shade? (Shade can be a special challenge.) We have some great ideas for you. You don’t have to have evergreens (which don’t like to grow in the shade and are slow to fill in) to provide screening from your neighbors. Here are a few which will work: Cornelian Cherry Dogwood, Viburnums, Serviceberry, Aronia, Abelia, Magnolia, Witchhazel. It’s almost tomato season. They are starting to ripen . Soon... View Article
