We’ve had lots of requests for Morgan Beauty, a stunning succulent and I’m delighted to let you know that we currently have it in stock.

Don’t wait too long – these will likely sell out quickly!

We’ve posted in the past about the increasing popularity (and practicality) of using cacti and succulents in your outdoor container gardening and/or garden beds. We stand by this practice – Cacti and Succulents are relatively maintenance free and with the heat and dry soil conditions we’re experiencing here in the GTA, cacti and succulents are an ideal solution. The only downside to many of these beauties is that they are not winter hardy in our zone 5-6 climate. This means that most cacti and many succulents must be dug up and brought in before the danger of frost, or alternatively, they must be replaced annually which makes for a somewhat costly “bedding plant”. So, if you’re into drought tolerant, but not quite sold on going as far with it as cacti and succulents, there are several winter-hardy perennials that you may want to consider. Here’s one:

There are still a number of shopping days until Christmas, but just in case you’re struggling with that hard to buy for person, we’d like make a few suggestions of some of the more interesting and unusual ideas for this holiday season. How about:

The very popular choice in a plant requires a very bright and direct sun location as well as a rich soil. Banana plants like lots of mulch and organic matter as well as lots of nitrogen and potassium (chicken manure seems to be a popular choice for banana plants)Your banana plant will thrive in a warm and high humidity location. Banana plants don’t like extreme temperatures (not winter hardy at all) or being hungry/thirsty.


This specimen of Fern boasts a beautiful, consistently bright lime colour. In a low light location you’ll see an even more unique and intense lime colour. This is a fabulous alternative to the tried and true Boston Fern but requires much the same care. Rita’s Neon will thrive in bright but indirect light, with high humidity and even moisture. If you plant outdoors, please select a sheltered area as wind can cause damage to fronds. Keep soil evenly moist but not wet. This plant needs to be indoors before frost or snow.

This tropical beauty is full of exotic blooms and you’ll reap the benefits of providing this plant with full sun and a well-drained location. Kangaroo Paws do require liberal watering while in bloom and a little organic matter to fertilize is a help also. Enjoy this prolific bloomer as a plant, or cut the blooms for your vase.
