Soft spoken, but a man with an extensive wealth of gardening knowledge, Nelson delivers the spectacular. He's the "Mailman" when it comes to consistent deliveries. Some landscape companies and master gardeners can talk a good game but fail in delivering a "knock your socks off display" year after year, not so with Nelson, you will be walking bare foot and be happy your doing it.You see, this is a year round deal for Jerry, if he's not speaking at a winter gardening conference in the upper Midwest, he is attending it, with a mission of attaining plant material and a design that will WOW his costumers.
Having trouble believing me, well tune into his weekly radio Gardening show on WRJN AM 1400 out of Racine every Saturday morning from 7:05 to 8:00 and you will hear the Master at his best. Or take a garden tour at his home, he is a Master Gardener, you know, and in many gardening minds, he is the Master of the Master. He is also a prominent member of many gardening societies one being the Wisconsin & Illinois Lilly Society.
So last week, when I saw Jerry going over his plan for Westmoors 2011 Seasonal Displays, with our Horticulturist, Jim Hicks, I got excited, because I knew the "Mailman" was about to deliver once again!!
