The beauty of gardening in the Pacific Northwest with our mild climate and definitive changing of the seasons offers an opportunity to be able to experience each season with a trip to the garden center to see what is happening in the plant world. 

The best time to select roses is in late January and early February. Local nurseries generally receive their new roses in after the beginning of the new year. Here at Flower World we bring in thousands of roses each season.

Low-Maintenance Showstoppers. No garden is complete without at least a few of these desirable plants in the landscape. Choose from grasses that are either evergreen or deciduous.

The Backbone of Landscaping. Trees do so much to create a beautiful yard from providing shade, offering vibrant colors, flowers, fruits and homes for birds and small animals, there are so many reasons to plant a tree.

Large, medium or small, shrubs create structure while creating a pop of greenery and color. Shrubs will live year after year and with endless options, they can bring beauty and fragrance while attracting birds, bees and butterflies. Shrubs include azaleas, camellias, roses, rhododendrons and many more.

Plant once to enjoy time and time again. Growing from rhizomes, tubers, bulbs or corms, perennials are meant survive the winter and come back for at least 2-3 years, if not more.

Trail or Train up a Trellis. Add some natural beauty to a structure, fence or trellis with vining plants. Whether you are looking for greenery or something with flowers, vines can spruce up many spaces with their beauty. Vines are some of the most versatile plants available.

Annuals will bring life and color to your seasonal garden and allow you to create a unique space each year. Choose from shade-loving or sun-loving annuals to embellish virtually every outdoor space including porches, decks, shaded yards or full-sun areas.

Welcome to the Jungle. Bring the outdoors in. Create a “living” living or workspace. Not only do indoor plants help to filter pollution and improve air quality, they also create a beautiful and peaceful environment.

New plants require the tools to care for them and keep them growing strong. Decorative pots are great for bringing plant life to your porch, deck, around the yard or indoors.

Create an  outdoor oasis with pavers, retaining walls and stepping stones. Choose from our circle kits to highlight a piece of statuary or a fountain, create a space where friends and family can gather or design a walkway connecting garden spaces. 

Fences make good neighbors. The same can be said for a privacy hedge. Whether you want to create a screen between your property and the neighbors, block out an unsightly area or add a beautiful border around your yard, there are many privacy screening trees and shrubs that will get the job done. There are different categories of hedge plants.

The best-known groundcover is, of course, your lawn. It is greatly suited for walking and playing on. For the places where foot traffic is infrequent or undesirable, there are many other nice groundcovers that can be used. 

What is better than reaping what you sow? If you’ve ever dreamt of being your own farmer and growing your own fresh vegetables and fruit, early spring is the time to prepare. 

Healthy plants grow from the ground up and insure your plants have all the nutrients they need in order to thrive with quality soils sold in bags or bulk and fertilizers to give them the boost they need throughout the year.

Garden statuary and fountains can help to define the personality of your outdoor space, create a focal point and add your own personal style to your yard, garden, atrium and more. 

Bring your pond or aquarium to life with aquatic plants. Water plants provide oxygen, prevent algae in pond and aquariums and provide protection for fish and amphibians. For most plants to survive in wet, soggy areas water must pass quickly through the roots otherwise the plant will suffer from lack of oxygen.
