Garden Rewards Club
At Bremerton City Nursery we have a Garden Rewards Club for our friends who want to be informed of new plants, products, educational classes, fun workshops and upcoming events. Members earn a dollar percentage of regularly priced plant purchases and receive weekly email updates. Stop by the nursery to sign up and start your gardening adventure with us!
One of the easiest ways to create a landscape that feels inviting is by mixing colors and textures. Notice how the white blooms of the Hydrangeas pair beautifully with the burgundy foliage of Smokebush, while the bright chartreuse shrubs add contrast. Add in a sprinkle of Garden Phlox and voilà!
Like it? You can recreate this look at home. Start with a few shrubs for structure, then layer in flowering perennials and contrasting foliage. You got this!
If your summer garden could use a boost, you gotta plant Coneflowers aka Echinacea.
Plant them in a sunny spot with a little room to grow, and you'll enjoy waves of flowers through fall. Shown here is Echinacea SUNSEEKERS® 'Sweet Fuchsia'.

Due to the extreme heat, Bremerton City Nursery will close at 3:30 PM today and tomorrow (July 21 & 22). The safety of our team and customers is our top priority.
TIPS TO KEEP YOUR PLANTS HAPPY: Water deeply in the early morning whenever possible. In extreame heat like this, ALSO water late evening. This helps reduce evaporation and gives roots time to absorb moisture.
DON'T FORGET YOUR FURRY FRIENDS: Make sure pets and wildlife have access to fresh, cool water and plenty of shade. Fill up a saucer in your garden for pollinators. Avoid walking dogs on hot pavement, which can burn their paws in seconds. OUCH.
Stay hydrated, and keep cool!
We're pretty sure Blackie does have a favorite place and it's Bremerton City Nursery.
If you didn't know, both of our nursery cats found us. They decided this was home, and we couldn't be happier that they did.
I think Blackie is secretly longing to be called something classical like "Odysseus."
I love that they found you and you take such good care of them. ❤️🐈⬛

Black-Eyed Susans are one of the first native wildflowers many gardeners fall in love with because they're SO dependable. They bloom generously and ask for very little in return. (We LOVE that.)
Garden tip: plant them in groups of 3 or 5 for a bigger, bolder display. They pair beautifully with ornamental grasses, coneflowers, Russian sage, and asters for a classic late-summer show.
I love the bkackeyed Dusans!
