Do You Yo.gar.den?<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

The older I get, the more important I realize the value of ‘me time’ for both my physical and mental well-being. For the past three years my way to de-stress is practicing yoga.<\/p>\n

In fact,\u00a0<\/span>September is National Yoga<\/a>\u00a0month. If you’ve never tried it over 2,200 yoga studios nationwide are offering a\u00a0*free*<\/strong>\u00a0week this month.<\/p>\n

\"The<\/a>At the\u00a0GWA regional meeting<\/a>\u00a0this past May I met Sandi and Dave Crabtree, owners of\u00a0Crabtree Gardens<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0in Drumms, PA. This couple has taken their Bed & Breakfast surrounded by beautiful gardens to the next level through diversification and thinking ‘outside the box’.\u00a0<\/p>\n

What piqued my interest was their partnership with a local yoga instructor to hold classes at\u00a0The Lil Yoga Barn<\/a>\u00a0at\u00a0Crabtree Gardens<\/a>.\u00a0<\/strong>They define yoga and gardening in a very special way –\u00a0yo.gar.den<\/strong>:\u00a0A plot of sacred ground where organic plants and yoga enthusiasts cultivate and spread universal love.<\/em><\/p>\n

They’ve also paired with a massage therapist for outdoor massages, an artist for children’s art classes and more. This\u00a0destination attraction has caught the eye of that younger generations who are searching for more than plants and prefers ‘experiences’.<\/p>\n

According to the\u00a02014 Garden Trends<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0report below, Crabtree Gardens is on target to meet today’s consumer’s needs and wants. How can your business draw inspiration from Crabtree Gardens to connect with Millenials? \u00a0<\/p>\n

\"Cinderella\u00ae<\/a><\/p>\n

Cinderella<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0is the smallest Malus in the\u00a0Round Table Series of Genetically Dwarf Crabapples<\/strong>. \u00a0She can be utilized as a small tree or shrub in the landscape. When top grafted, she is the perfect size for a container patio tree. Her tolerance to road salt makes her a great street tree option. \u00a0<\/p>\n

\"Cinderella\u00ae<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0\"Cinderella\u00ae<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cI first saw Cinderella in a garden setting while visiting\u00a0Lake County Nursery, Inc.<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0several years ago, and fell in love with this adorable, petite crabapple. I knew I\u2019d have to have one. My chance came the following spring when I renovated my front garden. I saved the prime spot for this tree and have never regretted it. The shape is perfect, it\u2019s completely carefree, and it looks great all year.\u201d \u00a0<\/p>\n

We knew John Lewis of\u00a0JLPN<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0had a winner, but third party validation is always welcome!<\/p>\n

Landscape designers and architects at the show commented that Parrotia is underused in both residential and commercial projects and they liked the attributes this new introduction has to offer.<\/p>\n
