As you can see this post is all about the Garden center! (Hopefully your virtual tour is a little less soggy than mine was!)
I love browsing through all the plants and flowers, I’d love to bring them all home with me but I don’t think that’s an option…
I do need some Marigolds for the veggie garden since they help to deter some pests and attract bees and butterflies, win-win-win!
Add in that I don’t have the greenest of thumbs but have had success with these in the last couple years, that’s another win!
The 2 gallon spring perennials are another one that we love, especially the lilies!
Though last year we had some critters nibble ours to the ground, this year they are finally starting to pop up in abundance!
Of course other staples of ours (and Ewoks!) are the Boston Ferns. We usually get 2 of these for out back every year, and Costco’s are the best!
Lastly, the veggies. The tomatillos and peppers I’ve gotten from Costco in the past have been amazing!
I had four tomatillo plants last year that wound up growing to about 6 feet tall and gave us almost more than we could use! Thankfully my Mom and Sister we happy recipients of some of the salsa verde that came out of the crop.
Anyone want to share their veggie growing stories & tips please do! As I said I don’t have the greenest of thumbs, so any tips and tricks that you have for getting a great crop of herbs or veggies I’d love for you to share with us all!
I’ll let you “leaf” through the Costco garden center now folks. Enjoy, and as always.
Be kind, be safe and stay healthy!

re the lilies (Asiatic I think they are) There is a beetle that eats all lilies except daylilies. You need to check your plants at least twice a day or more and squash the bugs. They drop easily to the earth and are hard to find.
Go in the earth and lay their eggs.
Good tip Dorothy, thank you! I’ll get out and investigate them today.
Keep oregano in a pot. I planted it in my garden many years ago and it came up EVERYWHERE the next year. It self-seed’s prolifically! I gave up trying to pull it out and dug it up in huge clumps, throwing them into the little woods across the street from our house. 20 years later, it’s still there, growing far and wide. I like to think it’s my contribution to the bees and butterflies 😉.
Now I’m fighting it again 😡…. the seeds dropped from a raised planter nearby. Maybe I should stick to the dry stuff in a bottle? 🙄😂
Cheers from Waterdown 🥂
Hahaha, that’s funny… Maybe you should start harvesting it and sell it! Ive got the same problem with mint from last year, time to dig it up and toss it in the woods!
