May is one of the most exciting months at the nursery. The days are getting longer, the soil is warming up, and everything is starting to come alive in full color. It’s the perfect time to plant, refresh, and set your garden up for a beautiful season ahead.
Everything Is Arriving in Full Color
This is when the nursery really shines. Tables are filling with vibrant annuals, lush hanging baskets, and fresh perennials ready to settle into your gardens.
From bold sun lovers to soft shade plants, there’s something for every space. Whether you’re filling window boxes, refreshing containers, or designing new beds, May gives you the widest selection of the season.
It’s Prime Planting Time
In our area, May is when planting really takes off. The risk of frost is lower, soil temperatures are improving, and plants are ready to grow.
It’s a great time to plant:
- Annual flowers for instant color
- Perennials that return year after year
- Shrubs and trees to establish early
- Vegetable gardens for a summer harvest
Getting plants in the ground now gives them a strong head start before the heat of summer arrives.
Garden Inspiration Everywhere You Look
One of the best parts of May is simply walking through the nursery. Everything is changing quickly—new arrivals come in daily, colors are shifting, and displays are constantly refreshed.
If you’re not sure what to plant, this is the month to explore and get inspired. Mixing textures, heights, and colors can turn even a small space into something special.
Don’t Forget the Basics
As things heat up, it’s also important to set your garden up for success:
- Use a quality potting mix for containers
- Feed plants with a balanced fertilizer
- Mulch to help retain moisture and reduce weeds
- Water consistently, especially newly planted items
A little care early in the season makes a big difference later on.
