Re: Good Morning!

Hi Patricia,
    I manage the Garden Center end of Jared's Nursery and Garden Center in
Littleton Colorado. It is your typical garden center...trees, shrubs,
annuals, perennials, chemicals, fertilizers, etc.I have always enjoyed
growing my own things and the owner loved to grow tomoatoes for the store
when he first got started in the business. 20 years later he was still
starting a few varieties that his growers were not providing and I have
continued the tradition. I have since added some flowers and perennials that
my growers do not have...Globe thistles, blackberry lilies, money
plants..and other fun and unusual stuff.
    Hopefully when you come out to ski again, you will not need to stay  a
few days longer because of a blizzard. If you come out in March again,
things should be about ready for customers at the store. It is only about 7
miles south of I-70 along the foothills after you come out of the mountains.

Betsy

ps there is a lot of snow in the mountains but not much on the plains.
