Live potted Christmas trees are a popular, environmentally friendly alternative to a freshly cut tree. Enjoy the fresh scent of live evergreens inside your home or in your outdoor décor with the added benefit of being able to plant it in your garden after the holidays to watch it grow and enjoy for years to come.
As winter blankets our landscape, the change in weather can pose challenges for our feathered friends. With their natural food sources like insects, berries, and seeds scarce, supplementing their diet becomes crucial. Winter feeding provides essential nutrients, ensuring our backyard birds maintain energy and warmth during winter.
Holiday urns add a touch of festive charm to your home’s exterior during the winter months. Sheridan Nurseries offers a beautiful selection of hand-crafted holiday urns designed to suit your decorative style. As the season cools and the weather changes, some naturally vibrant colours may fade as the materials transition to a dormant state. With a little attention, these magnificent arrangements can remain a welcoming touch on your porch or patio all winter long.
It’s springtime and if you started your seeds indoors, you’re probably very excited to move them to that perfect spot in your garden.
But because seedlings are fragile plants, they will need a little time to adjust to a move outside. You will need to harden off your seedlings so they can adjust to an outdoor growing location.
Hardening off is the process of introducing young seedlings to the outdoor elements. This process typically takes place over several days up to a week.
Gardening season is here with endless possibilities for creativity with plants. Express your personal style by designing and building your own summer planter. Whether on a deck, patio, or balcony, planters are an easy way to grow your favourite seasonal plants.
Pollinators such as bees, bats, butterflies, birds, and other insects are essential players in sustaining a healthy environment and ecosystem and are vital contributors to our agricultural sector.
There is widespread global concern for declining populations and the overall health of native pollinators such as bees. Factors such as exposure to pesticides, destruction of natural habitats, and climate change are all factors that pose threats to our native pollinators. Without bees and other pollinators, our agriculture sector and environment would be in big trouble!
Roses are loved for their delicate beauty, stunning colour, and the fragrance of their blooms. Roses vary in size and shape, from compact shrubs with small flowers to tall climbers with large, vibrant colours; roses make an excellent focal piece in any garden.
As one of the first growers to introduce roses to the region, Sheridan Nurseries is proud to offer one of the largest selections of roses in southern Ontario.
The first entries of hardy roses into the Sheridan catalogue were the FJ Grootendorst red and pink varieties in 1924. Later in 1939, Sheridan trademarked six Hybrid Tea Rose varieties and continued cultivating new varieties well into the late 1940s.
By 1952, people were buying houses in the post-war era, and it was the beginning of the Baby Boom. Homeowners wanted gardens, and no garden was complete without roses. Sheridan was again at the forefront and began offering the newest “All American Rose Society Award Winners” varieties. The Sheridan Nurseries’ collection of roses has continued to grow and expand over our long company history. Today we offer over 60 varieties at our garden centres across the GTA.
Peonies are one of the hardiest and most beloved perennials. Their beautiful showy flowers can last from spring right through summer, and make for outstanding long-lasting cut flower displays. Their lush green foliage makes them a garden focal point.
Sheridan Nurseries is the industry leader in Boxwood cultivation and development and were the first to introduce Boxwood to Ontario almost 100 years ago. Today we have over 70 acres devoted to growing boxwoods on our farm in Glen Williams, Ontario.
We’re your local garden centre, here to support your organization with a Poinsettia fundraising program just in time for the holiday season.
