Gosh! The exquisite sweet, citrusy fragrance along the Switch Back road at Reader’s will blow your socks off!! The Mock Orange shrubs, aka Philadelphus coronarius, are in bloom and create a feast for the senses, truly heavenly !!

During the period of June 3-4, around the Main Lawn, unscrupulous thieves stole a large clump of Fern Leaf Peony.    Please help us protect this special place!  Stay alert of suspicious behavior and report questionable &/or destructive actions to the Police.   We need to keep this National Historic Site safe for everyone’s enjoyment. Thank you for your concern & vigilance.

BTW, our Annual Plant Sale offers great buys. Plus, we luv to share our plants with the public, when it’s appropriate to do so, considering the plants’ life-cycle and health. That would be the “honest way” to welcome our plants to your home garden. Just sayin !

Thank-you for attending yesterday’s Plant Sale! Despite the rainy start, the event was a success!! Of course our fabulous hard-working volunteers made the day 💚 & the Cafe offered yummy treats too. Plus Catherine F. bidded generously for the handmade auction table. So nice to see you & we appreciate your support; Bravo All 😊!
