Tree Top Time, Folks

Tree Top Pot

As Midwesterners, it is a bittersweet reality that our longest season is winter. And this can bum out even the sturdiest of Minnesotans. Our spring time is short lived and is usually sprinkled with a combination of snow, ice, and sunshine. Summer comes and then is gone, leaving us engulfed in humidity and mosquitoes. Fall arrives and we all dash around the Lakes, visit the apple orchards, and rake the lawn in the last fading splinters of sunshine. For Minnesotans, the mother of all seasons is always looming in the distance. Winter comes and we tear out all the plants and call it good. But it doesn’t have to be that way! Outdoor decorating for winter can be just as festive and colorful as summer planting. With the use of tree tops, dogwood, curly willow, berries, and evergreens, your home and containers can sparkle even in the deepest cold.
Since winter is our longest season, why not invest in some tree tops? They are low maintenance, easy to plant, and resilient. The very first shipment of tree tops for the season has just arrived at Sunnyside Gardens. They are fresh cut by local farmers in northern Minnesota. Stop in and check’em out. So just as the winter blahs are starting to creep in, plant some tree tops and enjoy the evergreen beauty all season long. You’ll be happy.
