Another Day in Paradise..............

Australian Bluebell Creeper

It's going to look so good in the garden..............welcome home!

High Tide

YES! Made it to this garden nursery............
Also a small nursery, very cute not much of a plant selection but I did find this amazing plant called Australian Bluebell Creeper, almost missed it, couldn’t pass it up. Yes, that means I bought it, I'm sure I'll find a good spot for it in my garden.

Back to High Tide- they didn't have a big plant selection but the plants they did have looked very healthy and most were in gallon containers.
They did have some plants that were 50% off, I have to say they were small but they looked good, not much to do but water feed and watch them grow.
I found a good looking geranium, didn't buy it but used my appropriation technique, if there's a leaf on the ground it's mine, there was a leaf on the ground, unfortunately it looked like it was on its way out so I did what any other gardener would do plucked a good leaf of the plant, just think of it as pruning..........................works for me, it's in a glass with water, I'm sure it'll make it to LA in one piece.

So, if you're ever in Pismo Beach and want to visit some garden centers, High Tide is small but they have great looking plants, by the way is on Shell Beach Rd, it runs parallel to the 101, slow down… no really slow down lots of police in the area. If you're on Shell Beach Rd, headed north look left, the ocean views are lovely, if you’re headed south look right the ocean views are just as lovely, remember slow down and this time not because of the popo but to enjoy the scenery, I promise it'll make you want to stay......permanently.

Oh yeah, if you need that coffee fix Steaming Bean is just down the road, great coffee and pastries, bring your laptop is you must remember this place close early, so you got to be out of there by 7pm.
High Tide closes at 5pm Mon-Thur, open until 7pm Fri & Sat (summer hours), closed on Sunday.

Pismo or Paradise??

Finaly made it to a garden nursery in Pismo, the problem here is that most nurseries close early. These people are not fools, why keep a business open when the ocean, breaze and the sun are calling you. So after all this time, I made it to one of the nurseries.

Pismo Garden Art, in the heart of Pismo Beach on Price St.

WOW! the fountain are awesome, I wanted one of each, no matter that I don't have the space in my garden, I wanted on of each. I'll find the space..........

Not much plants but lots of garden art, a little pricy but the garden art is awesome, did I mention the fountains.

Per the sign on the wall most of the art they sell is made by local artist, not sure if this included the fountains. This place is small but worth the visit, in the event you get hungy walk one block south and you'll find guissepies deli, food is good. Need a coffee fix, one block north is the Java Hut, good coffee.

Since I had a few minutes I thoought I hit the road and make it to another little gem in Pismo, when I say little I mean little........
