Three Creek Farms

Now that warmer weather is here , it is time to start planting those pots and flower gardens.  One of my favorite places to visit is Three Creek Farms Garden Center.  This colorful center is overflowing with just about any kind of plants that you could want. Pat and Mitch Hargette  sell annuals ,herbs, garden plants and a huge variety of  planters  on the grounds of their renovated civil war era home in Marshville.

This is a view of their lovely home.

Koi pond on the house terrace.

This one was not for sale, but I hope Pat will get some started in the near future.  They have several different types of succulents and other drought resistance plants.

This is a bougainvillea . (Spell check helped me  with this word !) It is variegated.  I got this from 3 Creek for a Mother's Day treat.

 
Three Creek Farms is located at 2828 Lansford Road
Marshville , N. C.

Operating hours are Monday thru Saturday
10 am to 6 pm.

Come on out to the country. Bring a lunch and make a day of it . Enjoy the picaresques Union County farm land. 

Beautiful plants at very reasonable prices !!!

You can see more photos of the house and garden center at www.threecreek.com/Blog.

Enjoy your visit........it's well worth the drive !
