It's worth the trip to I.C. Greenhouses.

If you're looking for beautiful flowering plants for your gardens, it's worth the trip to I.C. Greenhouses, about two miles east of Highway 21 on the 6th concession of Huron Township.

There, you'll find a vast assortment of flowers in an array of colours, spread throughout the numerous greenhouses.

Owned and operated by Ida Piel, the business has been serving the community for approximately 25 years. Piel started with three greenhouses and now there are 20, featuring rows and rows of begonias, geraniums, green vines, and proven winners.

One building houses vegetable plants, and two greenhouses are set aside just for doing planters. Customers can choose from a variety of ready-made planters, or bring in their own containers to be filled. You can also browse through the many home decor items and "new homes" for your plants.

Walking through the greenhouses is an experience in itself, as the earthy smell of soil mixes with the glorious odour of flowers.

Piel says the business began as a hobby but as the demand for plants increased, so did the number of greenhouses. Customers wanted to grow something different, so she expanded to meet those requests.

She now has eight employees and is open for business from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m., Monday to Friday, and 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday; closed on Sundays.

Her spring opening special is "Buy one flat of plants and get an extra box for free."
Take the trip to I.C. Greenhouses - one of the area's best kept secrets.
