From CBC:
Sunnyside Greenhouses Ltd. is closing after 100 years of selling flowers and shrubs to loyal Calgary customers.
For many, a visit to the popular garden centre at 3439 69th Street N.W. was a ritual to mark the start of spring.
The owners, Grant and Warren Jensen, announced back in March that they had sold the Bowness site to a developer, but at the time said they would stay open for the 2018 gardening season.
