Display garden at Cady's Falls Nursery
Photo: Robert Mussey
Last weekend garden photographer Robert Mussey and I combined leaf peeping during the peak fall color in central Vermont with visiting some of the many first class nursery in the Green Mountain State. This is the best one we found on that trip. Cady's Falls Nursery is the 30-year-old love child of Don and Lela Avery. It's about a half hour north of Stowe at 637 Duhamel Road, Morrisville, Vermont, and is still open Tuesday to Saturday but you should call before you visit (802 888 5559). Don maintains a terrific website with his photos of the garden for a virtual visit at www.cadysfallsnursery.com. They specialize in VERY cold hardy perennials, unusual conifers, native wetland plants, alpines, hellebores, clematis, you name it...the display gardens are gorgeous and include one of the best man-made bogs we have ever seen. No mail order.
