Master gardener Brian Minter: 'It isn’t just the flowers and plants, but the innovative ways in which they are presented....that will make all the difference.'

Moms are pretty special, and since Mother’s Day is almost here, I’d like to offer a few suggestions to say, “Thank you,” beautifully.

Hanging baskets are a lovely gift too, but once again, you need to make sure they are large enough that they do not require daily attention. There are many kinds of trees that are well suited to small space gardens. Japanese maples, beautiful pink or white dogwoods, tree form magnolias and weeping katsura trees are particularly lovely candidates.

Perennial plants are always appreciated. Peonies, which are just now coming into bloom, lavenders, especially the continuous-blooming "Anouk" Spanish lavenders, and the blue perennial geranium, "Rozanne," which will bloom all summer, are among the most cherished.
