In the great land of Saskatchewan, Canada,
where greenhouses are plentiful,
where geraniums and petunias and marigolds abound,
there is one special greenhouse,
just 15 minutes from Saskatoon,
that sits in the middle of an enchanted forest,
that is very, very, different...........
Solar Gardens
& The Living Art Company
Our Retail Centre is located at our beautiful acreage where we live with our Komondor, Cala, and our Great Dane, Dylan, surrounded by gorgeous gardens, original art, and greenhouses stuffed full of breathtaking succulents (and a few cacti).
In our “Artist in Our Garden” workshops, we offer classes in succulent bowls, hypertufa, ceramics and clay, and mosaics - just to mention a few.
Our Retail Centre carries only products that we would personally have and use in our own home and garden, with many of the items being handmade by local artisans.
In addition to growing all of our succulents in our onsite greenhouses. we also supply glass greenhouses (imported from Denmark) to the gardening enthusiast.
New for Spring 2010 is the opening of our water gardening department. We will be featuring approximately 30 varieties of hardy water lilies, 15 varieties of tropical water lilies, lotus, and a large variety of marginal tropical and hardy shallow water plants, as well as oxygenating and floating plants. In addition, we will carry a revolutionary underwater "heated pot" to warm and extend the season of all your water plants.
Enjoy delicious coffee, cappuccinos, espressos, and a wide selection of tea and blooming teas on our courtyard deck. Who new that the ambiance of a relaxing Parisian rooftop garden could be found in the middle of the prairies?
Christmas at Solar Gardens is magical. Shop for unique gifts and decorations in our warm atmosphere. We promise you will have all sorts of forced blooming flower bulbs to choose from to brighten your Christmas and New Years tabletops. How often have you planned on having a blooming amaryllis for Christmas and it blooms 2 months later (or earlier)? We can help. Choose from blooming amaryliis and other forced bulbs (tulips, daffodils, paperwhites, muscari, snowdrops,and crocus) and your Christmas table will be the envy of all that stop by for that holiday cheer. Our tea boxes, coffees, European chocolate and hot chocolates, and overstuffed Christmas baskets (that either we or you design) will bring joy to your family and friends. PURE JOY!
Join us on our regular sale days and special events where our wood-fired oven may be burning with a special treat of Italian woodfired pizza.
