LEFTHAND VALLEY NURSERY
8266 North 81st Street, Longmont CO 80503 (MAP)
303.772.0200
Lefthand Valley Nursery is another out of the way nursery. This beautiful nursery, just west of Niwot, under the giant cottonwoods, is a good place to walk around and see many varieties of trees. It might make you sell your house and buy a smaller house with a bigger yard so that you can have more of their trees to enjoy for many years. Get with Dian or Mark and have them explain to you some of the best choices. Not open on the weekends, 8-5 on the weekdays. They can plant some of their trees as well. We can plant trees from here as well. http://www.lefthandvalleynursery.com/
COLORADO GARDENER
If you live here and have even a modest interest in gardens and plants then pickup a copy of this very “Local” publication. I’d say to go out and buy it but somehow they give it away for free. Look for it at your local nurseries, garden centers, grocery stores and other cool places. Truly a remarkable publication. They are now also on-line so that you can read old issues and learn from the monumental gardening talents of Colorado plantsmen & plantswomen.
