If you need proof that spring is here, just look at the high schoolers waiting at the bus stop in shorts.

Spring Faux Flowers

If you need proof that spring is here, just look at the high schoolers waiting at the bus stop in shorts. These fearless trendsetters seem to know before the rest of us that warmer days are ahead. At Sunnyside Gardens, we’re experts in seasonal transitions, and our garden center is soon to be stocked with the plants and accessories you need to welcome spring with open arms.

What PLANTS ARE in Stock for Spring?

  • Pansies – These early bloomers thrive in cool temperatures and bring instant color to your garden.
  • Herbs – Fresh, fragrant, and perfect for home cooking or an indoor windowsill garden.
  • Seeds – Get a head start by planting indoors and watching your garden grow.
  • Cold (or Cole) Crops – Hardy veggies like kale, broccoli, and lettuce that can be planted outdoors right now.

Why Herbs Are a Must-Have Right Now

Our lush 3 ½” herb pots are the easiest way to bring spring inspiration into your home.

  • Fresh Cooking: Snip and sprinkle homegrown basil, thyme, or rosemary into your meals.
  • Aromatherapy: Enjoy the calming scent of lavender or the refreshing aroma of mint.
  • Organic Options: Choose from a variety of organic herbs for a natural, flavorful addition to your garden.

Keep your herbs in a sunny window now, and they’ll be ready to move outdoors when the warm weather fully settles in.

So here’s to the teens in shorts—your bold wardrobe choices remind us that spring has arrived. While I might not be ditching my jacket just yet, I do have fresh basil growing in my kitchen—and that’s my kind of spring vibe.
