Great finds

Emery’s Garden of Lynnwood is one of Snohomish County’s many botanical treasures, featuring six acres of plants, display gardens and green-thumb supplies, all with the added bonus of free-range chickens and pheasant- and peacock-filled aviaries sprinkled throughout the nursery.

But did you know Emery’s, now bursting at the seams with signs of spring, also has one of the best home and garden gift and retail shops in the land?

In addition to an excellent pruning and garden tool collection both domestic and Asian, here you’ll find elegant vases for cut flowers, baskets, teapots, lighting accessories, bamboo rugs, dishware, footwear, books, home scents and lotions and seasonal items, too.

Think Mother’s Day, or just think of yourself.

Emery’s Garden is at 2829 164th St. SW, Lynnwood. Hours are 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily. See www.emerysgarden.com or call 425-743-4555 for more information.

Cheer up: Add some constant color to your garden with a baby blue Dutch watering can, small, easy to carry and perfect for delivering an even sprinkle over your sprouting seeds ($18.99).

Stop it: Put winter’s wooden or metal wine stoppers away for the season in exchange for these cuties from Koziol ($2.50 each, marked down from $5).

We all scream: Yes, it’s almost ice cream season. Get in the spirit with these specialty bowls from Tag ($5.99 each).

Egg me on: Brought to you by designer Wendy Addison, these glittery decorations will make your Easter guests ooh and ah ($4.99 for small styles, $9.99 for large).

Think spring: Freshen the look of your kitchen with tomato-themed towels and hot mitts ($7.99) or go for a new apron ($26.99).

Get whimsy with it: Give the birds a hilarious place to hide with an artfully carved gourd birdhouse from Fat Katz Designs of Seattle ($74.99).
