The Gardens in January

In January we put away the Holiday Light displays. Deciduous shrubs are pruned back severely to stimulate abundant new growth in the growing season. We also mulch flower beds and plant primroses, violas, and Iceland poppies for spring color in the Gazebo Garden. White ornamental "Peacock" cabbage and white stock are planted in the White Garden to bring this small wedding garden into full bloom by April. In the Butterfly Garden, most of the plants are resting. All roses are pruned hard so they will bloom well in early spring. The garden is beautiful at this time of year, especially when the plants glisten in the rain.
