The Difference between Hardscape and Softscape
There are two main components in landscape design. These two parts are Softscape and Hardscape. Hardscape are design elements that are solid and unchanging as the years go by. Softscape are elements that are fluid and changing as they mature. The ideal landscape is a balance of both hardscape and softscape.

One Snowflake at a Time
Here in Apple Valley at Pahl’s Market we average 49.9 inches of the white stuff annually. That sounds like a lot of shoveling but it usually comes only a few inches at a time. Once in a while we get a whopper storm but that just adds to the drama of our wonderful winters. Our numbers sound pretty good when you think of Duluth, MN which averages 80.7 inches each winter. So you ask why I am writing about snow and not plants? Well, the plants really need good snow cover in our zone 4 climate.
Pahl’s Market Plant of the Month – January 2014
Of all the plant varieties growing in the display gardens along the exterior of our greenhouses, the most noticeable during the winter months is an uncommon semi-dwarf Norway spruce with an unusual name; Picea abies ‘Acrocona’.
