Money really does grow on trees! People wandering through the south end of Mill Creek Town Center can now see tags attached to trees featuring dollar signs. The tags are part of an educational effort undertaken by the City of Mill Creek to help the community understand the value that trees and landscaping add to the city.

Mill Creek Garden Club kicked off its May 9th meeting with a special appearance by Steve Smith, The Whistling Gardener, from Sunnyside Nursery, Marysville. His topic “Hot for 2017 Plants” was met with great enthusiasm, as was his Q & A session at the end of his presentation. 

Early morning hikes, runs in the park, naps in the sun and a good game of ball. Our dog of the week Rosanne is the summer-lovin’ adventure buddy you have been waiting for! She is an energetic and active three-year-old Labrador who looks forward to getting outside and romping around.

It’s time to move out of our comfort zone and get into container gardening in a whole new way. Gone are the days when we only put flowers in our pots. Gone are the days when everything had to be perfectly symmetrical and gone are the days when all the colors had to follow the dictates of a color wheel.
