A NEW SEASON AT NEW LEAF

A NEW SEASON, A NEW BEGINNING

As we embrace the excitement of a new season, we’re delighted to welcome the arrival of our bare root fruit trees! Our team is carefully tending to each one—potting them and settling them into our greenhouses, where they’ll receive the perfect balance of temperature and humidity to help them acclimate and develop strong, healthy roots.

If you’d like to handpick your fruit trees, we recommend visiting us on opening day, March 1, 2025, for the best selection! Our friendly, knowledgeable staff will be happy to help you find the perfect fit for your space. With a little planning and care, you’ll soon enjoy stunning blossoms and a bountiful harvest for seasons to come.

Hard to believe, but opening day is this Saturday, March 1! Our New Leaf team is buzzing away, preparing outdoor décor just for you. From stunning yard art to a brand-new line of fountains and fresh garden containers, New Leaf has the perfect pops of color to brighten your yards.

Come rain or shine, snow or clear skies, we’re hard at work welcoming new deliveries of fresh trees and shrubs. Our greenhouses are bustling with activity as each start, tree, and shrub is carefully placed in its new home.

Hellebores are the first of many deliveries that have arrived at the nursery! These resilient yet graceful blooms are true winter champions, thriving even in the frostiest months. Not only are they long-lived and low-maintenance, but they also boast excellent deer resistance and remarkable shade tolerance!

As New Leaf Nursery continues to be a destination for gardening enthusiasts across the Inland Northwest, our dedication to quality, exceptional customer service, and a sense of community has stayed strong. With an ever-expanding selection of plants, engaging workshops, and expert gardening advice, we’ve built a community that continues to grow alongside us. This continued growth has allowed us to expand our facilities, introduce new plant varieties, and enhance the experience for everyone who visits. We’re proud of how far we’ve come and remain committed to cultivating a welcoming, inspiring space for all plant lovers.

The Wait is Almost Over—

Fruit Trees Arriving Soon!

We know a lot of you have been waiting patiently on the ‘wish list’ for the tree you weren’t able to get last season. If you did sign up, you will get a call when your variety arrives at the nursery. Once you get the call, simply pay for the tree, and if you like, come pick out your tree, we will label it, and we will house it for you in our greenhouse to protect it from the freeze, and it will be ready for you to pick up generally around the 2nd week of May. If you didn’t get a chance to sign up, we suggest reserving your fruit trees in person by coming in opening day, March 1, 2025 to see what we have to offer! Our friendly and knowledgeable staff can lend you their expertise to match you with the perfect selections.

If you’d like to be added to our fruit tree wish list, you can send us an email below with the fruit trees you’re interested in and the zone you live in. Please note that being added to our wish list does not guarantee that you will get your trees reserved, but you will get first choice when we call you regarding your fruit tree wants.

Blooming Big in 2025

Blooming Big in 2025—

Your Best Gardening Year Yet!

One of the greatest things about our community is that we are welcoming, and willing to help our neighbors. At New Leaf Nursery, we are continually inspired by the kindness, enthusiasm, and collaborative nature of the people we serve. This past year, 2024, was a time of remarkable growth within our community. We are proud to have grown along with our area, and to have been able to provide beautiful garden plants, trees and flowers to the community.

As we look ahead, 2025 promises a year filled with new opportunities. Our plant product line will continue to grow to meet the evolving needs of our customers. We are also increasing our seed supplies with the rising popularity of home gardening. The new years’ classes and events are being planned now with the emphasis on community involvement, and we firmly believe that introducing kids to gardening early fosters a lifelong love of gardening, an appreciation for nature, and a deep respect for the great outdoors.

To kick off the year, we’re offering a series of engaging workshops and classes throughout February—before the nursery officially opens on March 1. These classes are an excellent opportunity to stay connected during the quieter winter months. They allow us to share our expertise, spark your creativity, and provide a little fun as we eagerly await the start of spring.

New to the class lineup this year is a series of seed starting workshops. Each workshop will dive into a specific group like nightshades, herbs, brassicas, and onions/shallots. You will learn all about soil preparation, seed selection, planting tips, and proper care to set your crops up for success. But that’s not all! We’ll provide all the materials you need, including a seed starting kit with soil, a warming mat, and seeds.

We’d love to introduce you to Ashley, our newest instructor here at New Leaf who will be teaching our seed starting workshops. You may already recognize Ashley; she is a local farmer and works at the nursery as a sales associate. Her expertise will benefit you greatly as you begin to learn about seed starting. Ashley is also our ambassador for The Farmstand at New Leaf. The Farmstand is a seasonal market for local produce growers, dairy and meat farmers, fresh juices, breads and pastries, and local honey. The Farmstand runs during the growing season from June to September, showcasing seasonal produce and foods for your daily needs.

To learn more about these workshops, and for a full list of this year’s classes and events, please visit our website.


We’re thrilled to announce the launch of The Lil' Sprouts Garden Club—an exciting new series of classes and events just for kids! This program is designed to spark curiosity and wonder, and cultivate a love for nature in the youngest members of our community.

The Lil' Sprouts Garden Club will take kids on a fun and educational journey into the world of gardening and art projects. Each class will include educational and hands-on DIY art projects that allow your kiddos to unleash their imagination while building new skills. From painting colorful pots to designing enchanting fairy gardens, crafting bird feeder wreaths and more, every activity is inspired by nature and designed to ignite their creativity.

Whether your child is a budding botanist or an aspiring artist, The Lil' Sprouts Garden Club is the perfect place for them to learn, grow, and have a great time.

Community Spirit Open House

Our Holiday Open House is this Saturday from 12:00-7:00 PM! Please plan to join us at the nursery for a day of holiday cheer and appreciation of you, our community. Whether you decide to take a stroll through the nursery and look for your perfect Christmas tree, or you’re sipping hot chocolate or coffee by the fire while roasting some marshmallows, we can’t think of a better way to kick off the holiday season than with our friends and community!

Seasonal drinks and hot coffee will be served by Ugly Dog Coffee, and $5 pony rides will be available from Beyond the Bit in greenhouse 7. This is the perfect opportunity to get a head start on the holiday season! Discover the finest selection of Christmas trees, vibrant poinsettias, fresh wreaths and garlands, festive holiday decorations and centerpieces, unique gifts, and dazzling ornaments. Don’t miss our collection of beautifully lit holiday décor and thoughtfully chosen gardening gifts—there’s something special for everyone on your list!

Seeds Club Rewards members will earn DOUBLE REWARDS on everything purchased that day, plus an additional 25% off one Holiday item in the barn (excluding Christmas trees and consignment items). Sign-up online to become part of our rewards program!

This year, our wreaths are designed to stand out with their one-of-a-kind, handcrafted charm. Each wreath features carefully placed elements that bring natural beauty to life—think colorful berries, unique textures, and foliage. These wreaths truly are a "cut above" and make for a stunning addition to your holiday decor.

Our garlands are equally impressive, offering a lush, full appearance that instantly brings warmth and elegance to any space. Each strand stretches a generous 25 feet, offering plenty of length to decorate an 8-foot mantel and a standard doorway in one go. If you're decorating a double doorway, one garland will perfectly frame it, creating a grand and inviting look.

For an extra pop of festive color, we also offer bright red ribbons, which can be artfully added to either the wreaths or garlands. Whether you're going for timeless tradition or something uniquely personal, our holiday greenery will transform your home into a holiday wonderland!

Local grower, Holly Vesterby with Wylde Bloems will be dropping off Amaryllis for you to purchase starting November 30th. Amaryllis have become increasingly popular Christmas plants due to their willingness to bloom indoors in winter, producing bright, colorful flowers. If you prefer a fashionable alternative to poinsettias or Christmas cactus, come get one of Holly’s beautiful Amaryllis!

A special tree was donated to the foundation that will be on display at the Silver Lake Mall in Coeur d’Alene from November 29 to December 31. There will be an ornament on the tree for each North Idaho wish kid who is awaiting their wish. You can scan the QR code on their ornament to learn more about them and their wish.
