Wenke Greenhouses--Fotos of Flowers Available for Shipping Week of March 9

Welcome to spring and the first of our weekly e-newsletters with real-time fotos of the crop taken in the 18 acre greenhouses owned and operated by Wenke Greenhouses. These fotos highlight a handful of items we feel represent the quality and appearance that you could expect to receive when the truck arrives if you are so inclined to get some annuals, perennials, groundcovers or grasses from us next week.

In addition to real time fotos of the crop, we invite you to check out a few upcoming feature items. Please read on and check out our pride and joy. Thank you for your consideration.
