This guy is heavy, about 18inches in diameter and will need a good sized space. It is in an antique glass cake carrying case, too not pictured. It will require some trimming and will be better for someone with a moderate level of plant proficiency. Antique glass with exotic plants, and a moss covered castle! $250

The fine folks at Dabney’s Nursery invited me to bring some terrariums for sale this Saturday and I said, HECK YEAH!!! There’ll be mule drawn carriage tours of the nursery, BBQ, a petting zoo, and live music by Delta Joe Sanders. Who could ask for more on a beautiful October afternoon?
So, in between all of that fun stuff, step inside the gift shop to see my new creations. I have a variety of smaller terrariums, some that can hang in a kitchen window, and will bring a few larger guys, too. Also, a good variety of healthy, happy tillandsias (air plants), a few terrarium kits, and a “build your own” for kids while supplies last!
Dabney’s is located at 5576 Hacks Cross Road; I’ll be there from 11 am to 4 pm, so come on down and visit a while. Got a question? Give me a holla at 901-828-3685.
This beauty is now 6 months old and needs a good trimming – come see it. You might have a table just waiting for it at home!
Tiny green jewelsYou can put them away from a window so long as you have a broad spectrum light. Plants need light to make food, remember?
The Lovely Paulette Regan is joining me, with her head wreaths, watercolors, handmade cards, penny poems, and general spritely joy
Paulette is a Midtown legend: singer/songwriter, author, actress, visual artist, dancer … Wow! She’s bringing her guitar, might be crooning a few love songs, so come see us Sunday Feb 12 from1 to4 at 700 North Belvedere. Call 901-828-3685 or go to https://www.greenmansionsmemphis.com for more info
M Dancing Lady Love Sticks, shake me on down!Goldfinch!Something about frills about your face makes one happy, so this pile of head wreaths is a heap of happy!
It’s that time again, what with the cold and gray of winter descending on us, to get a little green to brighten your home or office. Terrariums are great gifts for anyone who likes nature (and, really, who doesn’t like nature?) and particularly for us urban dwellers, with no space or time to garden.
Come see me Sunday December 18, from noon to four pm, and I’ll help you pick just the right creation, whether simple and low maintenance for the novice, or more elaborate for a plant enthusiast to trim and train.
Seeking something truly unique? Think kokedama!
And that’s not all! Alisa Botto will be here with some photos from her Suburban Skies series, and they’re fabulous!
I’ll be cooking some nibbles, too, and hope you can come share some holiday cheer. Check it all out below, send me a message, or call me at 901-828-3685 for more information. Ya’ll Come!
