Latest Spring Plant Arrivals


This is the first day of Spring but it is snowing here at the greenhouse. I hope all of you remember to protect your newly planted things from the sometimes unpredictable cold weather of spring. We are expecting nicer weather this next week and it should be perfect planting days for those of you in the area. The greenhouse is getting new arrivals of Spring plants weekly so I thought you might like to see a bit of our selection. There are so many new things that I had to choose just a few. If you see anything you like you can stop by our store in Seymour, Texas or you can contact us by email or phone and we can ship it to you. Remember that we carry a very nice selection of many garden products that are organic as well as non organic.





We usually have a nice selection of planters full of beautiful plants that you can purchase. If you don't see what you like we will take special orders. You can choose from our many plant containers and plants.


We also deliver to the Seymour residents. If you need a gift sent for a special occasion we can help you. Our plants, and planters make wonderful gifts. We also have a nice selection of gift items that we can add on to your gift.

We carry bluebonnets and bluebonnet seed.

We have a huge selection of beautiful herbs


It is time to plant your cool season vegetables and we carry a very nice selection of vegetables and strawberry plants.

We also carry a very nice selection of hanging pots and we can deliver these too.
If you don't see what you want here then be sure to stop by the store or call to see if we have it. We carry many plants that are not easily found in most nurseries and plant stores.

Spring Projects

Springtime has arrived here at Feed and Seed Barn. That means we have new plants arriving weekly. We have a selection of vegetables, strawberries, and flowers. Be sure to check with us each week as we have more plants coming through out the season. I thought I would share one of our spring jobs that we did last year.

This was one of our larger jobs of the year.

We planted lots of perennials that will be gorgeous when they come up this spring.

We planted things closer in the front bed so that the impact would be larger.

We improved the soil in all the planters with plenty of high quality potting soil, fertilizer and we topped that off with a nice layer of cedar mulch.

The planters are watered with soaker hoses.

When using lots of perennials in a bed it will not have as much color and growth the first year because the roots are growing underground.

On the second year, the plants that survive will be much prettier

If it survives and does well, it should be absolutely gorgeous on the 3rd year.

I am looking forward to seeing how well it does this spring. If the spring weather has you ready to get your hands into the dirt be sure to stop by and see our latest arrivals.
