MERRY Christmas hope ye are all well and getting into the festive cheer its can be such a busy time for everyone and that’s understandable.
So, the garden kind of minds itself now and we can just relax and admire how the lovely winter days have changed the garden.
The leaves are gone the plants are dormant and all is quiet. But that does not stop the planning now is an ideal time to move plants, if you are thinking of relocating them, especially if we have no frost.
Keep an eye on the bird feeder to keep topping them up with assorted food and leaving access to water for them to drink.
Most people are busy o the lead up to Christmas, hoping to get that perfect gift and thinking about what would suit people the best, so let me give you some ideas as what garden centres can offer this time of year. We have a lot of filled planters with merry Christmas printed on the pot and we have them filled with lovely coloured flowers, including reds and assorted white. The planter ranges from baskets to ceramic pots of all shapes and colour. Christmas arrangements for the table or some lovely gift pots with Christmas cactus. are also available. If you like ornaments we have a range of animal themed decorations; from dogs to sheep available. One of my favourites is the Adare stone lighthouse. It is a lovely ornament with twinkling lights, that’s just some of the few we have available and there are lots more instore.
If you need pots filled, we continue to offer this throughout the Christmas period. We have a range of graves wreath and pits available and some lovely plaques with beautiful remembrance verse on them. I would like to thank each one for taking
the time to read this column and for supporting local businesses. I want to wish you and yours a merry Christmas. Christmas opening hours for Blossoms on the Go Garden Centre:
