Nows the time to sow many native seeds, like White Turtlehead. They need 90 days of winter to germinate. Large snapdragon like flowers bring elegance to your shade garden. One of many new seeds available on our site #cheloneglabra #whiteturtlehead #shopsmall #shoplocal #plantnative #heirloomseeds

Pics from a fabulous short hike along the Boyne River today after an ankle appointment and before work. I've been spending so much time in my garden and helping my parents that I haven’t hiked (read wandered) all summer. #nativeplants #bloomscrolling #nature #invertebrates2025 #cheloneglabra #slug

A Bumblebooty blessing from my yard last year. Lil dude is deep in his cups in my Chelone glabra (Turtlehead). #nativegarden #plantnative #bloomscrolling #bumblebee #bloomsky The tiny feets always slay me. #minnesota #cheloneglabra
