Bernard’s Green Valley Farm, June 28, 2025
Grammy G’s Garden partnered with beautiful Bernard’s Green Valley Farm for information on home gardening, with an emphasis on native plants, and of course, blueberry picking by the bushel! Thank you Amy, Jonathan and Lou for hosting us, and for providing an excellent Walk About session to showcase native plants around your farm.
Watch for upcoming events and workshops with Grammy G’s Garden!

My husband and I just returned from Jamaica and were immersed in our own paradise within the Wild Orchid Secrets resort on Montego Bay!  Highly recommend!  The flora and fauna were so unique and different from our Lehigh Valley, Pennsylvania zone 7a world, with exotic plants that are well and truly usually found living as houseplants!  I continue to research their proper Latin names….in the meanwhile, here is a glimpse of the colors, shapes and magnitude of what we marveled at during our stay. Ya mon, as they say on this beautiful island of Jamaica!

February 18, 2025, Winter Musings
As I look outside my home office window with the last shrouds of snow on the ground and enduring the 20 degree weather, I am longing for the delivery of my Johnny’s Seeds order! Who else has cabin fever?

March 6, 2025, Philadelphia Flower Show
And what a show it was! This year’s Philly Flower Show theme was “Gardens of Tomorrow” with futuristic exhibits incorporating neon, glass, bright colors, and more. Along with the future-forward look, we enjoyed the classic exhibits from massive forest and natural installations, cottage style gardens with whimsical storybook creatures, amazing garden art, unique houseplants, and even a golf course green! The crowds were light on a Wednesday (pro tip to attend mid-week) with lots of opportunities to check out workshops and vendor areas.

Looking forward to the 2026 Show!
