Gardening friends,

Received this email from our friends Lisa and Andy Putnam in St. Paul.  The Hosta business is becoming too high tech, I guess.  Sad for a lot of us.

Take care and thanks to Lisa and Andy for notifying us.  Hope you all have a Happy,
Healthy and Fun Filled Holiday season.  A Prosperous New Year to all.

Gunther, Dean and Brenda

Hello Hosta friends:  I bet this is NOT news for some of you but it took me by surprised. I hope your sitting down. I hate to be the bearer of this bad news. I copied and pasted from the Hallson Hosta forum the following. later, Love, Lisa  P.S. I hope our paths cross on Sun.

 

Dear Customer,
Shady Oaks Nursery has been a leader in providing Shade Loving Perennials for nearly 20 years.

A business decision has been made to close the Retail Division at Shady Oaks Nursery. The economy and competition have played a large part in our decision. We are no longer offering a retail catalog.
We will continue to be a strong player in the Wholesale Market. With the closing of the Retail Division, we can now focus all our efforts in becoming a leader in supplying your local garden centers with quality shade loving plants.

Happy Gardening,

Gordon Oslund
President
