June Newsletter
June-Blooming Hibiscus: Alyogyne 'Lady Barbara Rose' | Photo: JA
June provides the perfect conditions for planting: with cloudy mornings giving way to sunny afternoons, it's the perfect time to get your summer plants in the ground before the simmering heat of midsummer sets in.

From luscious hydrangeas to fragrant oleander to the giant blossoms of vibrant hibiscus, you can't go wrong with a June flowering plant - see a wide selection of our favorites in the"Featured Plants" and "Garden & Landscaping" sections of this newsletter. June's strawberry moon also ushered in the first of the strawberry crop, with other fruits starting to develop. Make sure to follow our instagram to stay abreast of what's coming to fruition throughout the season.

Please let us know what we can do to help you find the plants you need, when you need them. Call us at 408-239-0589, email our sales team, view our website, or visit us Monday to Saturday.

For a colorful, healthy, happy June,
