✨ Happy 2024!!! ✨
Hope your winter Holidays were good to you!
Here at the greenhouse … new life is emerging to greet the coming spring, even though it’s currently very cold outside. ❄
And, so it begins … Romulea bulbocodium, an out of zone corm that will be grown for the herbarium and overwinter inside; Allium senescens ssp. Montanum & Campanula thyrsoides – all sprouts looking promising & cozy in the indoor warmth. 🌱
Let nature be your teacher
Listen to Autumn’s stillness … rest, rejuvenate & plan for next year’s adventures.
The Cafe is now closed, but the garden is still available for a peaceful stroll. Enjoy the quiet seasons!
Thank-you to ALL our supporters for making 2023 another successful year at Reader Rock Garden!!!
