Welcome to
Zehr's on the Lake!
Good-bye summer!  Hello fall!  You can't deny the cool crisp air and jewel toned colors dotting the landscapes.  Contrary to popular belief, fall continues to be an ideal time to plant.  While most people think of spring as the best time for planting, avid gardeners know fall can actually be the best. The drought of summer is only a memory and Mother Nature, in her infinite wisdom, is aiding your planting endeavors by supplying liquid sunshine, cool air and warm soil for deep root growth. 

With the busy summer behind you, it's time to take note of those "lack luster" areas in your gardens and liven them up with a star-burst of fall blooming flowers.  Fall bloomers can transform your gardens into something beautiful with their color displays of deep purple, rust, scarlet and gold tones.

Check out Zehr's top picks of Fall Bloom'in Stars: Perennials; Flowering shrubs; Ornamental grasses and Mums (Twenty varieties and 7 new introductions for 2010).

Also, remember those times throughout the growing season when your gardens lacked color?  Take time to fill them in now and enjoy the color show next season.  The trick to designing your garden with perennial flowers is making sure you have something wonderful in bloom all the time. Zehr's still has a wonderful selection of spring and summer bloomers.  So get up and get growing!

Everything that slows us down and forces patience, everything that sets us back into the slow circles of nature, is a help. Gardening is an instrument of grace.

What people are saying about us...

My sister-in-law and I are happy repeat customers of Zehrs.  We live in Lockport and are so happy that such a fine family owned business is just minutes away. Every spring we get excited trying to decide what to plant next. We know that whatever we need, we will find at Zehrs.  And they are a wealth of knowledge, to anyone like us, who want to try  new varieties.  The classical music playing definately must have a growing effect on the plants!  They are all so well taken care of, alot of green-thumb love! See you there!
