Join us Saturdays thru October at the Kankakee Farmers Market for our featured Horticultural Wonder, Tillandsia's. These amazing plants will grow without soil, hence the common name 'Air Plants'. Exotic and colorful in bloom, they can be grown almost anywhere there is bright, indirect light. Coming soon to Acorn at the Farmer's Market:
      
Carnivorous Plants - Flytraps, Butterworts, Sundews, Pitcher Plants and Cobra Lilies
Staghorn Ferns - Amazing ferns that look like antlers to hang on your wall or trees outdoors!
Succulents - Unusual moisture storing plants from South Africa
Dwarf Conifers - Slow growing, hardy evergreens with exotic foliage and colors
                                        
If you're interested in bringing one of these exotic air plants home and are hesitant because of their unusual nature, make a reservation for our FREE 'Air Plant' Workshop by clicking the photo below. You will be taken to our Workshop/Class Schedule where you can select your topics of interest and register.
