The tree that refused to die.
This stalwart Washington Hawthorne was run over by a drunk driver. Fifteen months ago she was lying prostrate along the ground with 90% of her trunk severed. I'd nursed her from a 6" plug 5 years ago and wasn't prepared to give up that quickly . Now at 12' tall she's a sight to behold.
Start of the New Season
Our team of knowledgeable gardeners has completed much in a short time . The new season opens on 30 March and the red carpet is ready to welcome patrons and actors.
An abundance of early spring flowers herald the arrival of spring and another year of friendship and knowledge.
Saturday I will be at the Playhouse to receive a new load of horse manure and would welcome anyone willing to help me off load.
Look forward to seeing each of you Tuesday 29th 9.00am

WELCOME BACK TO THE FLATROCK PLAYHOUSE GARDENS
It's that time of year again when 'dead- mud' turns to 'live- mud.'
The studio is being cleaned and the last firing of pots takes place this week. On one hand a sad time as I will miss the creative side of playing with clay, on the other a wondrous time as I equally love watching the majesty of plants showing off all their glory as winter turns to spring . The bulbs are opening, robins are singing and the weather , most times is wonderful . Life is good.
Master Gardeners and members of The North Carolina State Theatre Garden Club opened the season March 8th with an amazing turn out and much work was done. We have teams of Field Experts lined up both to work, teach and train .
If you would like to come out and join us we meet every Tuesday, 9.00am at the Flatrock Playhouse. Bring friends and family - even well behaved four legged friends are welcome.
