The North Idaho Building Contractors Association (NIBCA) Parade of Homes is Saturday & Sunday, September 18 & 19, and returns the following weekend, Friday, Saturday & Sunday, September 24, 25, & 26.
New Leaf Nursery in Hayden is a proud supporting member of the NIBCA.
We are honored to create the planters showcased on the outdoor terraces at the show home by Rosenberger Construction! The interior of the home was artfully, and beautifully, decorated by our friends at The Tin Roof in Spokane, WA. Heather Hanley, owner of The Tin Roof, lent her special skills of combining color and texture to create perfect furniture and décor selections to enhance the beautiful home design. Heather invited us to provide the ambience for the outdoor terraces by creating garden plantings in large pots and vessels. Our design team created pieces to coordinate with the landscape design, created by Yochum Lancscape. We hope you’ll be able to see the home in person to see a perfect collaboration of professionals!
Get your tickets to tour all of the homes in the NIBCA Parade of Homes!
Our work is showcased at the Rosenberger home in Fox Hollow at Hayden, house #1 on the parade map. You will see gatherings of interesting foliages that are happy to grow in North Idaho landscapes!
After you tour the home, and walk out onto the terraces, you will find a QR code on our signage. Scan it with your smartphone, and it will take you directly to our website, where you will find images of the plantings you are viewing in person, with a full identification of all the plants that were used in the various containers. We didn’t want to make you guess what that crazy curly branched plant was! Click on the photo, and you will learn more about the Harry Lauder Walking Stick! While you’re there on the site, sign up to win a custom planter for YOUR home, created by our talented designers in your custom color palette!
If you can’t visit the show home, visit our website to view the plantings and get details on the combinations we used.
More news
This past Wednesday evening, many friends gathered to listen to Paige & Nick, of Ooh La La Arborculture of Sandpoint! It was a great evening, loaded with lots and lots of information about plant and tree pruning! Almost like magic, these two took a Japanese Maple and turned it into a work of art!
It was a great evening of questions, and answers. One question that came up was how to help the large pine trees that are showing brown needles right now in our area. Paige explained that this was caused by water deprivation, because of the extremely high temperatures we endured this summer, and the extreme lack of water we’ve received in the region. Paige told us that drip irrigation could assist the survival of these distressed trees.
What’s next?
Next week, talented Petra Van Baar, will show us all how to make a fall inspired wreath for our door, or for a thoughtful gift for a neighbor or a friend! It’s brisk in the morning…the leaves are starting to turn…fall is upon us!
Join us for Petra’s Fall Wreath Making class on Tuesday, September 21 from 6:00 - 8:00pm at New Leaf Nursery
So. . . if it’s fall,
then we all know what comes next!
Thanksgiving and Christmas are heading this way again! The elves are busy at work, creating amazing and beautiful things to adorn your homes and offices. Keep checking our website for all the news! You will find a HOLIDAY tab where you will find more information about our holiday decorating services!

So what’s happening in the nursery?
Quite a bit…so glad you asked! Along with classes, and a great weekend of touring beautiful homes in the region, and classes, 2022 seeds are in-stock, fall bulbs and garlic and set to arrive next week, there are cornstalks galore, and the mums! Have you seen the mums? Honestly, these are the best, most colorful mums ever. While they are called ‘hardy’ mums, we don’t guarantee they will be back next year. Our climate says no, but sometimes Mother Nature says yes, and back they come next year about this time!
From your friends at New Leaf Nursery, we hope you have a wonderful weekend, and come by and say hello if you’re out and about! We always love to see you…
