GARDEN CENTRE
Jack Lake Landscape's award winning garden centre was conceived
and established in 1992 to serve the Apsley area as a place
for "northern gardeners".
We are located in zone 4b on a beautiful piece of the Canadian shield.
This can propose some challenges to those of us attempting to contribute
to the natural beauty of the region with our gardens and landscaping.
However, for any problem you encounter, there's usually a solution. Often
it's as simple as properly amending the soil or choosing the right variety
of plant for the condition.
Our
philosophy has been to take the "guess work" out
for our customers, by continuously seeking and providing new
and proven products and varieties of hardy plants that work.
The following are some of the things you can expect to find at our garden centre to make your northern gardening experience more enjoyable:
-
Our famous "iron hardy" perennials. Hundreds of varieties of beautiful healthy plants. All the old favourites plus the latest hybrids. All rated from zone 2 to 4, our perennials are not forced in greenhouses. (You will not find plants that are supposed to bloom in July, blooming in May.) This allows them to grow at the proper stage of development for the time of season making them that much hardier. All our plants come with colour information tags to help with your selections. 10cm pot -$2.49, 12cm. pot - $3.99, 1gal. pot - $4.99 & up.
-
A great selection of fresh herbs and vegetable plants from "Freeman's" - one of Ontario's top herb growers.
-
A wide range of evergreen and flowering shrubs, plus a good selection of native shrubs. Large "caliper" trees that we can deliver to your location. All varieties are selected for their hardiness and all are #1 quality nursery stock from top growers in Ontario and Quebec.
-
Explorer and Parkland Roses. Developed by Agriculture Canada in Ottawa and Manitoba, these are the toughest roses available
-
Custom hardy grass seed blends from Ontario Seed Company. Grass seeds for sandy soil, naturalization blends and clover.
We are dedicated to the environment with 100% natural fertilizers and low impact pest control solutions.
-
A great hardware section, with all the tools, watering and pruning supplies, and accessories that you would hope to find, at "big box" prices.
-
Besides the usual packaged peat moss, compost and mulches, we also sell the following products either bagged or bulk: high quality screened triple mix topsoil, washed sand, limestone screenings, pea gravel, river rock and pine bark mulch. We deliver (check our landscaping materials section for complete list & prices).
Well, you get the idea; we like to consider ourselves the "one stop shop for northern gardeners." Some of our customers like to come over and wander around our extensive display gardens to see how different plants grow and get some ideas. Our friendly staff is always willing to answer your questions and offer expert advice. There's a wonderful shopping atmosphere here that we're sure you'll enjoy.
