🌲 A little before & after magic! 🌿✨
Back in 2015, we planted this bed of conifers, and over the years, these rare and unusual beauties have grown up and outgrown their space. This week, with the help of Mark Foti of Foti Landscape, Josh Hasenfus, and Joann Vieira, we gave some of them a new lease on life and moved them to our newly reimagined Greenhouse Ruin Garden (working title… LOL! 😂).
We’re hoping these special plants love their new homes as much as we’re loving watching this garden take shape! 💚 It’s been so exciting to see the vision come to life, and we’re absolutely thrilled with how the space is coming together.
🌿 A project this big takes a village! So many talented hands, thoughtful minds, and hardworking people have helped bring this vision to life, and there are far too many names to mention in one post. We’re incredibly grateful to all the designers, stewards, asbestos removal crews, and nursery folks who will be giving the greenhouses a new purpose, as well as to the Trustees for believing in this project and helping make it possible. It truly takes a team, and we’re so thankful to be part of this one! 💚
✨ Phase One is officially complete!And trust us, there’s more to come… Stay tuned to this space as our greenhouse ruin garden continues to grow and evolve!
🌲 The conifer crew that made the move:
* Chamaecyparis ‘Confucius’
* Chamaecyparis ‘Pygmaea Aurescens’
* Chamaecyparis ‘Chirimen’
* Picea abies ‘Tompa’
* Picea ‘Chitosemaru’
* Picea ‘Nana’
* Ginkgo ‘Everton Broom’
* Pinus ‘Jakobsen’
Here’s to new beginnings, happy plants, collaborative efforts, and a garden full of possibilities! 🌱✨
