Re: transhipment of Trees from Southern to Northern California
I was out in the valley 2 weeks ago at several of the larger wholesale
nurseries.
They are shipping up from Southern California but only after spraying,
quarantine, and
agricultural inspection upon arrival in Northern California.
They two wholesalers I asked stated that they had not increased prices
(yet).
Of course, I cruised by Home Depot yesterday and thought that some of their
prices
had increased.........
