Yesterday we stopped by our local nursery while running some
errands, and I found a few good deals.  They're running a 
'no sales tax' promotion this week and Tuesdays are 10% off
on everything, plus there were some plants at 50% off on
clearance.  Here's the haul:

   1 Astrantia 'Vanilla Gorilla' gal $7.99
   1 Campanula poscharskyana 'Blue Waterfall' gal $5.99
   1 Coreopsis 'Balupteamed' (Uptick[TM] Cream) gal $12.59
   1 Eryngium zabellii 'Neptune's Gold' gal $5.19
   1 Geranium sanguineum qt $2.79
   2 Geum coccineum 'Cooky' qt $2.79
   1 Ligularia 'Britt Marie Crawford' gal $7.59
   1 Lobelia siphilitica gal $3.99
   1 Phlox 'Fashionably Early Lavender Ice' gal $7.99
   3 Rudbeckia fulgida var. sullivantii 'Goldsturm' qt $3.59

I think I was duped on the Geranium, though.  It was listed as
Geranium sanguineum Spiked Punch[TM] on the label, but when I
visit the producer's web site they just list it as G. sanguineum:

I'm thinking that Centerton Nursery got a trademark for a phrase
and are just using it to market the straight species.  I searched 
through the USPTO trademark database and couldn't find any record, 
either.  But I'm not sure.  More research is needed.  :)

Anyone else getting some deals?

Chris
