4. Lee Valley Tools (leevalley.com) has upped its online game, and along with tools and cool household gadgetry, the Canadian company stocks a wealth of gardening supplies. Get a jump on the planting season with this set of three terra cotta seed sprouters ($20). They fit over standard drinking glasses to keep seedlings moist but not submerged, and they have holes of different sizes to accommodate microgreens, small bulbs and large bulbs. 5. Once your indoor seedlings have taken root in potting soil, you don't want to blast them to smithereens with too much water pressure. Lee Valley's seedling sprayer ($17.50) is a kinder, gentler system, with a stainless- steel neck that delivers a soft spray right where you want it. (leevalley.com) 6. Indoor grow lights have come a long way. GroFlex LED tape is flexible, easy to cut to size and comes with a peel-and- stick backing so you can use it almost anywhere. Kits from — where else? Lee Valley Tools (leevalley.com) — include power supply, on-off switch or timer, starting at $94. 7. Local maker Mary Horbas has been putting puns on plant plots — and smiles on buyers' faces — for the past year as the founder and creative crafter behind Potted Winnipeg. A typical four-inch pot goes for $12, or you can double dip with a two-pot theme — the Say Aloe to My Little Friend & Little Friend combo retails for $25. Shop online at Good Local (goodlocal.ca) and Generation Green (generationgreenwpg.com), or reach out via Facebook.com/pottedwpg. Horbas also offers custom lettering. 4 5 6 7 Parade of Homes SPRING 2021 91
