A Time to Begin Again

A Time to Begin Again

by | Jan 14, 2015 |

What does a gardener do during the winter in Minnesota? Well, we have a few choices. We can curl up with a good gardening magazine by a cozy fire. We can also start to look over all the seed catalogs coming in the mail this month. January is a good time to do some planning for the next gardening season. I take out my notebook and look at scribbles I made about the past years successes and failures. For sure I will use more of some annuals and maybe not so many of some others. We all must remember that each growing season is different, so maybe some things that didn’t look as we had hoped may be worth a second try.

December Plant of the Month

December Plant of the Month

by | Dec 4, 2014 |

The Fraser Fir was named for John Fraser, a Scottish botanist, who explored the southern Appalachian Mountains of North Carolina in the late 1700’s. The Fraser Fir is a pyramid-shaped tree with a straight trunk that reaches a maximum height of 80 feet and a trunk diameter of 1- 1 1/2 feet. The Fraser Fir grows naturally only in the southern Appalachians, above 4,000 feet in elevation. The cool temperatures and abundant rainfall of North Carolina’s high country help the Fraser Fir to keep its needles throughout the Christmas season.

I know, this is a gardening article, but isn’t December the month to eat cookies? What a glorious, festive time of year. Yum!

In reality, it’s a lovely time of year to decorate for the season with fresh evergreens and a little Holiday bling! We carry a full line of fresh evergreens for you to use in your decorations. The fragrance of the pine boughs and balsam pieces can’t be beat.

November is always a month of being thankful and rejoicing that the growing season has come and gone. Planning has already begun for next year and multiple pieces of equipment are fixed or being retrofitted for the coming year. As we all know the years seem to come and go quicker with this year’s fall being no exception. As I sit and write this month’s newsletter we are loading our last cabbage to be shipped and we shipped our last squash last week.

November is not Just for Turkeys

November is not Just for Turkeys

by | Nov 1, 2014 |

Though November fills our thoughts with wonderful turkey dinners and great family times, at Pahl’s we are already in the busy Christmas mode. Our decorative evergreens are arriving, the market looks like a Christmas wonderland, we begin the sprucetip workshops, and the production of our custom line of Christmas pots is in full swing. The change in our world is a big one. We also look forward to closing the big front doors of the market and turning on the heat. It gets cozy and festive for all who enter our store and greenhouse.
