Greenhouse Is Seasonal...Open April 29 thru June 13, 2010.
FOR THOSE WHO DO NOT YET KNOW PAJARITO GREENHOUSE,
HERE'S A SNAPSHOT:
Perennial Flowers....we
have lots. And we specialize in those which are known not just to
survive...but to thrive in Los Alamos, White Rock and the alpine areas
of the Jemez. That means most are dryland plants calling for very low
to moderate water.
You'll find we are very big on being water-stingy in general. And urge you to be the same way.
Annuals...We
do carry them in large quantity, but there's a trick up our sleeve. Our
annuals are so well tended at our greenhouse, that the most common
comment about them from customers is that our flowers don't seem to
take a set-back from transplanting. They just start growing. Usually
that means you will not have to sock so much water to them to get them
established in your garden...or to keep them flourishing.
Tomatoes...we
do do a variety of varieties!... from the 44-days to maturity type to
the longer varieties. We don't sell 'em however until April 26. Then we
have them in 6packs, 4.5' pots 5.5' and 1 gallon pots. Here's what we
carry: Better Boy... Big Boy...Brandywine...Celebrity &
Champion...Early Girl...LaRoma (sauce type)....Large Red
Cheery...Lemon Boy...Park's Whopper... Patio...Super Fantastic...Sweet
100...Yellow Pear.

Jim (big and juicy..most popular for rellenos), Espanola Improved
(great XXXhigh-heat flavor), Agco Hot (Yep!), New Mexico #6 (mild..the
