🎄 Holiday Plant Market Event Mementos

  • Thank you to everyone who came out for our Holiday Plant Market!
  • It was a joy watching the garden fill up with familiar friends and first-time visitors all exploring, chatting, and discovering new favorites.
  • Our PeopleCats took their jobs very seriously, trotting ahead of guests, inspecting carts, and making sure no one left without the perfect plant. The whole place buzzed with good moods, warm weather, and that fun holiday energy only a tropical garden can create.
  • If you see yourself or your friends on the photos, save or forward to share the memories!
  • If you spot yourself or someone you know in the photos, go ahead and save them or pass them along. We hope your new plants settle in beautifully, and we look forward to seeing you back in the garden soon. Happy holidays and happy growing!
  • Check out more pictures of the Event

Stop planting shade plants until you see this one!

Megaskepasma erythrochlamys - Brazilian plume or Red Cloak

Stop planting shade plants until you see this one!

  • 🚩Megaskepasma erythrochlamys - Brazilian plume or Red Cloak is one of my favorite winter colors in the garden. It comes from a plant most people overlook.
  • It keeps pushing bold red flower spikes when many plants slow down.
  • 🚩It handles sun or shade, attracts butterflies and hummingbirds, and even surprises people with light cold tolerance. Big leaves, strong structure, and steady color make it a solid choice for beds, fences, or large containers.
  • 🚩If your garden needs color that does not quit when the season changes, this one earns its space.
