[INDOOR-GARDENING:114] Re: Gingers response


Dear Claire and List,

Yes, Claire, we too have discovered Home Depot AND Lowe's.  I still think it
is rather a secret just creeping out.  They have splendid plants much of the
time.  And the choices vary literally from week to week.  Often, we pick up
lovely and unusual plants for a little bit of nothing -- ones we don't have or
are out of.  I got some 20 to 30 orchids there this week -- several different
genera, and some striking pink and white, small growing pepperomias!  I was
not needing any, but the African violets were beautiful, all in full bloom and
not broken or dirty from their shipment.  Most of the plants we see at these
stores, Claire, are from Florida.  That, in part, accounts for how they can
ship them in midwinter.  We now make a practice of "hitting" Home Depot and
Lowe's on a weekly basis.

Good Growing!

Jim McKinney,
McKinney's Glassehouse
