Could Fall be Here?

Yeah fall!! I'm so glad it's finally here. I was starting to think we weren't going to get a fall this year. I've heard it might be a little warm tomorrow, but we should have a REAL fall weekend complete with rainy weather. I feel a big pot of white chicken chili coming on...yummy!!! 

We got some more pumpkins yesterday so if you've stopped by and couldn't find what you wanted, be sure to stop by again this weekend.  We also got some more decorations in so stop by to check those out as well. If you've been waiting for some new birdhouses, you need to stop by and see what we got in. I've taken some pictures and will try to get them online tomorrow. We got houses, feeders (big and small) and even a set of "jack-o-lantern houses" that are just incredible (you better hurry on the "jack-o-lantern houses" because I'm thinking of taking them home with me because they are so cute!!!

Oh, I almost forgot...here's a great fireplace we completed recently. Wouldn't this be nice to have in your backyard during the cool fall nights? Give us a call at 692-0052 and we can come out and give you a custom quote.

Got Maintenance?

Fall is about to kick into gear and a lot of us are going to be doing some serious yardwork (including mulching). Don't you wish there was a way to keep from getting that big mulch bill twice a year? Well, now there is...sign up with a yearly maintenance contract with Creekside Nurseries & Hardscapes. When you sign a yearly yard maintenance contract with us we take ALL of your yearly yard work; including mowing, weeding, leaf removal, mulch installation...you create your own contract; and we divide it into 12 monthly payments. Each contract is individually designed so that you can be as detailed as you want. 

What's even better? Sign up through the end of October and for the next year you will get 20% off in stock plants and shrubs at the nursery. You even get preferred appointments in the Spring and Fall for mulch installation. 

Refer a friend or your neighborhood association and get additional discounts! 

Call us today at 692-0052 and get signed up. We only have a limited number of slots available so hurry!!!

Our New Space

Many of you know by now that we are going to be getting a new office. My favorite thing about this space is that it is SO big we will be able to actually have some INDOOR retail space. Here's what I need to know....what do YOU want to see in that space? New accessories for our Kamado Joe Grills? Maybe gift baskets that could be delivered to your friends during holidays and special occasions? How about gift items that you could pick up on the run? Bird seed and houses? Grass seeds and pesticides for your gardens? Or what about fresh-cut flowers? 

Give me some input on this. I need to know...

What's Going on Down There?!?

If you've driven by the nursery over the last few days you might be wondering what the heck is going on? Well, we have gotten rid of our old yucky office!!! YEAH! We are getting a new one in the next few days, and everyone is excited about that. (At this point I would post a picture, but do you really want to see a ppicture of an old dirty trailer???) Now, when we get the new building I will post some pictures of that. We will have offices for everyone, a conference room for client meetings and even some much needed indoor retail space!!!!

The most important thing is that we are still open! We've got plants and shrubs and of course lots and lots of mulch!!

Some people have asked about mums. Don't worry, they are coming soon. It's still just a little hot, so if you go out and get any mums, be prepared to water them...lots. We have lots on order so you'll be able to get all the mums and fall decorations you want. I personally cannot wait to start fall decorations. We will have corn stalks, hay bales, flowers, pumpkins....ok, I have to stop talking about it now because I just LOVE fall. 

Come see us!

Kamado Joe grills are coming!!

Hey guys! Just a quick post to let you know that Creekside Nurseries and Hardscapes is now a dealer for Kamado Joe grills. If you don't know about these great ceramic grills, go to their website and get some more information. I will write some more about them this week.

Give us a call at 692-0052 for more information.

Feelin' Hot Hot Hot...

I was just sitting here looking back at old posts and read the one I wrote in July about the mild weather. Boy, do I miss that. I knew Mother Nature would get us good for that. I just hope we get some of that nice cooler weather back soon. 

We are really getting a lot of hardscape bookings right now. So, if you want an outdoor room before fall you better get on the ball and give us a call!! Our landscape designer and our hardscape designer

are both hard at work getting plans out the door for people. 

In the meantime, here's a picture of a recent patio/fireplace that we did. Doesn't that look like a nice shady place to be hanging out? Wish I was there right now...
