Re: plectranthus argentus

Rich et al,

The plectranthus argentus is indeed not around this season, but no trouble with other cultivars as well as dahlias and cannas (tubers and plants) at White Flower Farm. 

There was also plentiful supply of both cannas and dahlias earlier this season in Costco at nine tubers for about 10 bucks.  Granted, they weren't 'Phaison' or 'Pretoria,' but they were still fabulous large leaved and colorful.  The dahlias ranged from dinnerplate to bedding size with green leaves and dark leaved varieties to choose from. Crop failure, shmop failure!!

  Am I the only one who cannot find any Plectranthus argentus this year? I have been using it for years, but this year none of the garden centers I usually visit have it & none know why.
