The greenhouses display a wide range of house- plants, bedding plants, patio pots and hanging baskets, while eve- ry hue of green can be found radiating from the flowering trees, shrubs and vines which make up the surrounding grounds. Even after the rush of spring planting season is over, Carol, Dave and Kevin Steckle are ready to meet your gardening needs. Huron Ridge Acres has a fabulous selection of nursery stock, all potted up and ready to be planted all summer long. The Steckles also have a very large selection of perennials in pots for summer planting, as Huron Ridge is quickly becoming a year round garden centre. "Some people prefer to buy perennials throughout the sum- mer," said David Steckle. " That way they can see what they'll .bloom tike before they buy them.;; • /titIf ron Ridge Acres or'ers oversandrre of shopping area, with much of it covered by greenhousb. When people enter the front door, they think there's a lot of plants in the first greenhouse, but considering what the Steckles have to offer, they really haven't seen that much. "It goes on and on," said Steckle. "It's really quite deceiving." Dave and Carol started the business in 1973 with about 2,000 square feet of greenhouse to which they have steadily added. Since that time, son Kevin has entered the business, and the Steckles have added a flower shop in Zurich. "I guess we've come a long way," agrees Steckle. They built the greenhouses themselves, with the first ones made of wood. Huron Ridge currently utilizes 12 greenhouses in all, as well as a large outdoor perennial area with one of the larg- est selections of perennials in the area. During peek season, Steckle has about a dozen people working for him, including the delivery men who have been swamped of late. It's been so busy that thoughts were entertained about covering yet another greenhouse. "So far it's been one of the fastest, busiest seasons we've ever had," said Steckle. The owner is always searching to find new varieties of perenni- als and those not normally readily available. At present time, Huron Ridge boasts what are probably Huron County's only fruiting banana trees. Huron Ridge Acres is currently operating on May hours, open weekdays from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m., Saturdays from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and 1:30 to 5 p.m. on Sundays. Beginning June 15 the business will remain open until 6 p.m. on weekdays and be closed on Sun- days.
