A new lot of capi pots have recently come in! We
have more of the fiberglass pots we all love and
we are excited to introduce the capi Tutch line!
These beautiful pots have the look of stone, but
are lightweight and very durable. They are
perfect for indoor OR outdoor use. Frost and UV
resistance makes them great for our cold winters
and hot, sunny summers. Added bonus? Capi
offers a 10-year warranty with their Tutch line!
More tropical plants will be arriving near the end of
April. Spice up your outdoor containers with palms or
dracaena for a thriller, or use colourful philodendrons
for filler! Lush green tropicals pair beautifully with the
sleek look of capi!

Plant Tip of the Month
Summer means big, bountiful vegetable
gardens but spring means getting those
seeds started. This month is the time to
get your tomatoes and peppers started.
At the beginning of next month start
your leafy vegetables such as lettuce,
kale, and spinach.
