Binley News from the Flower Guy...

September/October 2011 Newsletter

Greetings from The Flower Guy

We've come to the end of the summer of extremes. It started with too much rain and then went straight to record heat, I hope your garden survived and, if not, there is always the gardeners' refrain: "Wait until next year".

In this issue I'll cover Giant Hogweed, something we've had questions about; the fall season favorite, garden mums; and a reminder about our 6th annual fall festival. This year's event features something different, wine tasting, so be sure to read all about it.

Fall 2010 Newsletter

Seasons Greetings from the Flower Guy!

After a scorching summer and a wet fall we've arrived in November and thoughts of winter and the holiday season are upon us. In this newsletter I'll have a "show and tell" about our Fifth Annual Fall Festival with a link to some pictures on our website.

Speaking of our website, read on to find out about the changes we've made there and because this newsletter covers November and December, I've included some seasonal information too.

Thanks for your business and I hope you have a safe and happy holiday season.

Late Summer 2010 Newsletter

Greetings fron the Flower Guy!

Fall is almost here and, after the record heat we've had this summer, our lawns and gardens will get a chance to regroup before the winter gets here.

In this issue I'll cover ideas to use your summer garden to decorate for the fall and one of our most popular flowers, the garden mum. Tomatoes seen to have found something else to cause us worry. This year it's blossom end rot, so be sure to read about that.

As I look out on our sales area the mums, pumpkins and corn stalks are shouting FALL, despite the tempertures. This year has allowed us to grow some of the largest mum plants we've ever had. Stop by and see what we've got.
