Introducing Yala Bamboo Dreams

We are thrilled to offer a line of sustainable and luxurious clothing to our customers this fall.  Yala's clothing is made from 95% bamboo fibers, providing the clothing with many wonderful qualities. It is deliciously soft, easy to care for and produced in a way you can be proud of.  Bamboo is grown organically and regenerates quickly. It also produces 30% more oxygen than trees and is a hardy plant requiring no irrigation, saving a lot of water compared to cotton production.  This fiber is also Oeko Tex 100 which means it is free from chemicals or harmful substances.  Yala only uses natural or low impact Azo-free dyes and goes beyond many to keep their business ecologically and socially responsible.

Freshen Up with Autumn Color

As the cooler temperatures arrive so do new plants for sprucing up outdoor containers and garden beds. We enjoy mixing hardy herbs and vegetables into our outdoor arrangements along with pansies for a pop of color.  Evergreen foliage like Heuchera (aka Coral Bells), Ajuga, Euphorbias, Vincas and more can give a planted arrangement year-round interest and striking texture and color contrast   A more traditional choice is to center a conifer in the pot and surround it with pansies and ivy or vinca for a trailing effect.  Whatever your taste, there is no need to leave your outdoor containers empty during the cold.

May is the month that kicks off the season for outdoor parties and celebrations.  Even if you're not hosting or attending a gathering, chances are that you're ready to spruce up the patio, back deck and/or garden so that you can really enjoy your outdoor living spaces. The annual plants are here in abundant color as well as the heirloom summer veggie starts.  It also not too late to add some perennials to your garden.  New deliveries of plants arrive every week and we seek out the healthiest, most interesting varieties we can find. Also just in, due to popular demand, wish lanterns!  We have them in all the colors of the rainbow, perfect for finishing off an evening party in a festive and beautiful way.
