Cha-ching! (11-23)

North Haven Gardens in Dallas, Texas, has launched a great Christmas tradition a the store: Holiday Happy Hour.

Customers can sip wine and enjoy bites while shopping the store's selection of new holiday gifts with a garden twist. During Happy Hour -- which actually runs from 4-7 p.m. on Dec. 2-- they can learn to create beautiful holiday center pieces using fresh greens.

They also can assemble the store's new Woolley Pockets with their favorite plants and discover which bulbs are best for forcing. Additionally, North Haven Gardens will feature its Terrarium Holiday Ornaments while offering lots of great giveaways.

Creating an event and making it fun is an excellent way to tap the holiday spirit and show already festive people how festive your garden center can be as well -- even after the holidays. That connection is what "Cha-ching!" is all about.
