Anyone who thinks that gardening begins in the spring and ends in the fall is missing the best part of the whole year. For gardening, begins in January, with the dream. - Josephine Nuese\n\nWe agree 100% although we would amend the last sentence to include "and all the planning to make the dream a reality!" \ud83d\ude42\n\nJanuary may be slow for the actual planting of container gardens, but let me tell you, we are so busy planning! We are ordering gorgeous flowers and plants for the upcoming spring planting season and researching new varieties to surprise and delight our clients. \n\nSpeaking of delights, we have been dreaming of going to the provenwinners Grand Garden Show at the grandhotelmichigan on Mackinac Island, Michigan for years and were planning to go this past summer. Sadly this bucket list item was postponed due to covid, but we are so excited for the day it will happen. We absolutely love garden tours and Mackinac Island in the summer looks dreamy. Has anyone been to the Grand Garden Show and is it fabulous? Do tell!<\/p>\r\n\t <\/div>\r\n\t \r\n View on Instagram<\/span>\r\n\t\t\t\t\r\n\t <\/path>\r\n\t <\/svg> <\/a>\r\n\t

Sunrise over a new corner of a garden you might recognize from jackbarnwelldesign videos. I\u2019m always interested to see what Jack does here because this corner is a real challenge. It\u2019s planted along a sea wall where waves will crash over on occasion and in a very exposed area. This is coming right off an area that is protected and heavily planted with annuals so the other challenge is transitioning to a completing different situation in the same garden. If you are coming to Mackinac Island for the provenwinners Grand Garden Show in August make sure you check out some of the plants Jack used in this tough spot. \n\n#gardendesign #grandgardenshow #sunrise #imgonnagetrainedontoday<\/p>\r\n\t <\/div>\r\n\t \r\n View on Instagram<\/span>\r\n\t\t\t\t\r\n\t <\/path>\r\n\t <\/svg> <\/a>\r\n\t

08.27.2013. No cars are allowed on Mackinac Island, located on Lake Huron between mainland Michigan and the "Yooper" Peninsula of Michigan. The island is about 8 miles around, and most people get around on bicycle or horse carriage. Men follow behind the carriages, walking with scoopers and bags to pick up after the horses to keep the streets clean.\n\nI happened to arrive on the island the last day of the yearly Grand Garden Show, where many of the homes around the island display their colorfully floral gardens for the people who travel to stay at the famous Grand Hotel where the show is hosted. It was great to see beautiful old homes and their beautifully groomed gardens.\n\n#49stateroadtrip2013 #mackinacisland #mackinac #horsedrawncarriage #michigan #theup #upperpeninsula #lakehuron #grandgarden #grandhotel #grandgardenshow #flowers #garden #getlost #getoutdoors #explore #adventure #travel #wanderlust<\/p>\r\n\t <\/div>\r\n\t \r\n View on Instagram<\/span>\r\n\t\t\t\t\r\n\t <\/path>\r\n\t <\/svg> <\/a>\r\n\t

\r\n 08.27.2013. No cars are allowed on Mackinac Island, located on Lake Huron between mainland Michigan and the "Yooper" Peninsula of Michigan. The island is about 8 miles around, and most people get around on bicycle or horse carriage. Men follow behind the carriages, walking with scoopers and bags to pick up after the horses to keep the streets clean. I happened to arrive on the island the last day of the yearly Grand Garden Show, where many of the homes around the island display their colorfully floral gardens for the people who travel to stay at the famous Grand Hotel where the show is hosted. It was great to see beautiful old homes and their beautifully groomed gardens. #49stateroadtrip2013 #mackinacisland #mackinac #horsedrawncarriage #michigan #theup #upperpeninsula #lakehuron #grandgarden #grandhotel #grandgardenshow #flowers #garden #getlost #getoutdoors #explore #adventure #travel #wanderlust<\/span> ...<\/span><\/a><\/span>\r\n <\/p>\r\n \r\n\t

\ud83d\udc9a This is it! The final countdown to our Grand Garden Show at the award winning historic Grand Hotel on Mackinac Island, Michigan! \ud83d\udc9a\n\nPre-show festivities begin this Saturday evening with a cocktail party in the gardens, followed by a Sunday afternoon cooking demonstration with celebrity chef Nathan Lyon.

From the porch, you'll glimpse the magnificent Mackinac Bridge--the fifth longest suspension bridge in the world--which crosses the sparkling Straits of Mackinac. All the cares in the world seem to evaporate when you are in this enchanting place.\n\nThank you to the 600+ guests who will be joining us for our 9th annual Grand Garden Show.
