Winnsboro in east Texas is residence to the cutest little plant retailer that I attempt to go to no less than a pair occasions every year. With the proper climate we’ve been having this week (75 levels and blue skies), I used to be chomping on the bit to purchase some new crops! And take some pictures with their Cinderella carriage that’s simply casually positioned behind the roses like they needed to be the official plant retailer of The Rose Desk.
Classic and Vines has a number of the healthiest crops I’ve ever seen. It by no means ceases to amaze me. They carry such superior sorts of the whole lot too – you received’t discover my Scentimental or Peggy Martin roses at simply any plant nursery however you’ll discover them each at Classic and Vines this spring!
I usually get my greens at Classic and Vines however sadly most have been bought in six packs this 12 months, which is a good deal (solely $3.50 for SIX tomato crops!) however greater than I want of anybody selection so I made a decision to carry off. The one factor I at all times need from Classic and Vines however by no means spring for are the hanging baskets. They’re so huge and exquisite!
I did nonetheless get a few issues to take residence: two insanely big and wholesome knockout roses to place in a difficult spot in my courtyard. It’s difficult as a result of it has full solar however has unhealthy drainage and sometimes has standing water after a storm. At my first home, I grew the famously trouble-free knockout roses in an analogous spot they usually truly did rather well so fingers crossed!
I additionally obtained a shocking drift rose, which I simply couldn’t stay with out. I’ve additionally by no means grown (or written about!) a drift rose, so I believed it could be a enjoyable addition to the backyard. I’m not 100% the place I’m going to place it but however drift roses are so small – nearly 2 ft large and tall and prolific bloomers – that I can simply pop it in a number of locations.
Classic and Vines has unbelievable blueberry and blackberry bushes – I’m nonetheless regretting not grabbing the world’s prettiest blueberry bush! – in addition to fruit bushes, hydrangeas, shrubs, and tons of annuals. Inside they’ve lovable items like farmhouse indicators, planters, and sweet. Classic and Vines can also be only a stone’s throw away from downtown Winnsboro, which has nice retailers and scrumptious eating places.
