Interesting Farm Plant Store

One of the places my daughter was interested in exploring, when we last visited her, was a large plant store on a farm near London, Ontario. 

She had read somewhere - on social media, perhaps - that they had interesting plants. 

She wanted to buy a rattle snake plant.

So off we went up and down county roads...

It’s so much more interesting than taking the highway!

I must admit, I was surprised by how many fields and farms we passed... This is real farming country!

I hadn’t been to London for years - not since my youngest son was a student at the University of Western Ontario - at least 15 years ago.

For plant lovers, the store is a real treat! 

Housed in a large greenhouse, the plants come in various sizes.

So many plants I’ve never seen before - as well as old favourites.

After stopping for snacks...

... we drove to the university - where, for some reason, I forgot to take pictures.

We did get a picture of the house our son had shared with friends for several years. I assume it’s still student housing: a pair of jeans had been tossed on the roof!

It was interesting to come back!
