Joy: New England Nurseries in Bedford, MA has remained a…read moremagical happy place for years. Beautiful Perennials, Annuals, & Shrubs have all remained healthy, & instructions for optimal growth are attached. Convenient location right on Concord Rd is a bonus. Wandering the lanes -- with such a sumptuous range -- reminds me that "Joy is not meant to be a Crumb".* Need To Know: Many plants include valuable details, such as: Attractive to Pollinators; Repels Mosquitoes; No deadheading blossoms required; Deer Resistant; 6-8 hours of Direct Sun needed. Good to know. More Planting Info: Because most Plants are arranged by category in beautifully marked lanes -- sun, shade, perennial, annual, native -- finding fundamental info is simple. More details are always easily found online, too. Goats! Visiting sweet & frisky rescue goats Ben & (yep!) Jerry is a pleasure: climbing rocks, munching hay, encouraging petting. Ah! Simple fauna pleasures among so many floral treasures. Dear elderly Fluffernutter is a goat 90 in human years, enjoying attention as a sweet-natured senior. Planting Questions Rating: I remain so puzzled by negative comments about customer service. I've found help to be accessible, valuable, & informative, even near closing time & when especially busy. My questions would annoy most nurseries, but planting instructions included are not always specific enough. Examples of rookie questions that have been answered pleasantly, even by phone: My Rookie Questions: How may I plant autumn Tulip bulbs that won't be devoured? (Consider Daffodils.) Will 'Million Bells' (Calibrachea) need to be covered if nights dip below 45? (Depends. Is location sheltered?) Can Pansies tolerate light frost? (Yes.) What should soil temperature remain to plant spring tubers for glorious Dahlias? (50° F. or warmer.) Impatiens? (60° F. lowest). What I Don't Ask: I only ask questions if not clearly marked on plant -- yet extra info provided helps, like knowing newly-planted Dahlia tubers do need watering if rain penetration depth is insufficient. (Want Dinner-Plate Dahlias in August? Stick a finger into soil an inch or so in spring. Dry? Tuber or plant needs more water: Rain wasn't enough.) Addendum: I have not purchased trees or landscaping materials, so cannot judge customer service for them. Quality & selection appear exceptional, & friends who have bought them were happy with results. Summary? I Love New England Nurseries. _________________________________ * Quote: Mary Oliver poem: "Joy is not meant to be a Crumb."

My husband and I dropped in on a Saturday afternoon to choose our first live Christmas tree together and had a memorable experience. There's a plentiful selection, including pre-cut or cut-your-own trees in a huge field. Once you choose your tree, a worker will securely attach it to your car roof for a worry-free drive home. Be sure to check out the adorable store too that features Christmas ornaments, seasonal trinkets, homemade wreaths, and fresh apple cider and donuts. Of note, cash is the only accepted form of payment, so make sure to stop by the ATM first!

A bonsai haven outside the city…read more This was a trip! With all the insane Boston traffic these days, the drive here could very much be a good 4 hours (there and back). But don't get me wrong- this bonsai haven is worth the trip. They are one of the most friendly and experienced bonsai shops around. Just ask for the father-daughter duo, Emmy and Michael! As first time bonsai parents, we were rightfully dubious in our efforts to keep these miniature trees alive. But with the help of Emmy and Michael, we left with a new found confidence in our plant rearing abilities. And I'm happy to report that our baby jade bonsai is still thriving. There are a plethora of bonsai variations; choosing the right one depends on where you plan to keep/plant these beauties (we were told). In the colder months, they have services to take care of your bonsais for you. And it seems like many bonsai owners utilize this service! If you want to supplement your bonsai purchase with a bonsai guide book, fertilizer, soil, you name it- they have it here! If you're ready to commit to a lifelong relationship with a bonsai, I highly recommend stopping by and browsing- this place will definitely have something for everyone! And you'll be in good hands!
