Re: shopping

I started last weekend since the weather wouldn't
cooperate for anything else....

So I am curious... what is the going rate for a flat
of annuals in everyones neck of the woods. 

Here they are more expensive than previous years. Flat
of 48 is 9.99, although some of the high end garden
centers are considerable more.
