Visit to Alden Nursery
We are planning to landscape in our front yard, but we are really confused which plant to buy for the garden. We have been tried to gather knowledge from Internet, but it was a difficult job.
Few days back Mr. Man have come to know about one nursery. Though the nursery is not exactly near our home, but we can manage to go there and buy plants.
So, last Friday Mr. Man took me there. To me, it was another busy Friday, but I could manage to squeeze out some time to visit there. I was completely blown away by the collection of plants in the nursery. We decided to take walk through the whole area. However, we reached nowhere. Moreover , I didn’t want to buy any plants, as we are going to landscape in August. Mr. Man didn’t want to ask with anyone. Lastly I talked with one lady, and she was amazing. She showed me all the plants which I can use for landscaping. I just told her my requirement. And, my requirement was in very broad range.
I told her the how I want to decorate my garden. She showed me all the pants one by one which I can use, and within no time I managed to narrow down my list of plants.
She gave me some tips, how to test the drainage capacity of the native soil. She told me to dig a one foot deep whole, and pour water into it. If the whole becomes empty within an hour then the drainage is good of the native soil. I also want to plant want Clematis in my garden, I love the flower, the flower is absolute gorgeous. She told me that, the root of the plant should be kept always cool.
Anyway, I usually love gardening. I love to visit the nurseries, but this nursery gave me all I want for my garden.
