Re: shopping

Hi Everyone!!!
    I have been lurking due to the long days at the garden center. It has
been in the upper 80's and Low 90's the last couple of days in Denver...and
this morning the house is in the fog with a morning temp of 40. I have
gotten a few planters done...tomatoes...onions...boccolli, Imagaination
Verberna hanging baskets, waterfall jap maple(green) with blue fantasy
petunia aa an understory...not as much as I would like.

    Two years ago, the Garden Centers of America toured Colorado on their
summer road trip and commented on how well the local independen garden
centers worked together. They were also amazed at the prices that we charge
and get for our flowers.  Are you sitting down...a flat of 48(1204) or
72(1206) not mixed up goes for only $21.00 at my store and I may be the
cheapest of the independents.
