With the arrival of the rosemary cuttings, the special order greenhouse is getting filled to capacity. The fenugreek has germinated and last week we transplanted the Bouganvilla and Scaevola cuttings into 3 inch pots. We also made hanging baskets out of the sweet potato vine.
Teri and Dan made a very impressive presentation to attendees at the Nebraska Governor's Agritourism workshop resulting in some great contacts.
If you didn't see the story in the Omaha World Herald on Sunday, February 1, you can do a search for it or click on the above link. It was written by Leslie Reed and not only ran on the front page of the Metro-Region Section, but also ran on the front page of the North Platte Telegraph.
The big news is that GROW Nebraska is making a visit to film a YouTube video at the greenhouse and we were approached by the Omaha Herb Society to see if they could come visit the gardens.
All in all, this has been an exciting week for all of us at Ricky and Lucy's Greenhouse. On the website we have added online garden tours where you can see what the gardens look like in the spring and summer.
You can also see what pottery we have available in the showroom and catch up on the recipes you might have missed.
Spring is coming, March 21 is just 5 weeks away even if snow is still falling in some parts of the country!
See you soon,
