See YOU at the Saltscapes Expo!

We’re not only busy around the nursery, we’re getting ready to attend the 8th annual Saltscapes Expo. If you’ve never been before, you have to come down to Exhibition Park in Halifax, April 27-29.

Magnolias are putting on a show at the nursery

Imagine if the very popular Saltscapes magazine came to life at Exhibition Park–that’s pretty much the show in a nutshell. There’s food, music, talks, displays, unique retail…and we’ll be there, front and centre.

Ensete maurelii, an ornamental banana, one of the unusual plants from Hort Couture

We’ll have plenty of great plants at the show, including some of the amazing Hort Couture lineup of container plants. For more information, please checkout the Expo section of Saltscapes magazine’s website, and we hope to see you at the show.
