2013 Best Nursery

in Bellingham  - Cascadia Weekly  readers

Oriental Lily Lovers meet our local grower, Melinda Creed.  Melinda started as a hobby and now grows several thousand Oriental lilies for sale as potted perennial plants or cut flowers.   She grows about 40 varieties, including several of the new "rosily" which are double/multi layered lilies that are pollen free!   Lilies are drought tolerant, bee friendly plants that will turn your summer garden into a fragrant feast of color.   Perfect plant to grow in and around mid to taller plants in your border.   They are also fabulous in pots!     There will be a special discount on Melinda's collection at the event.  And, we'll be selling her cut flowers much of the summer! The class is free.
