Hey Gang
I've been hitting the Lowes hurt plant racks  No huge deals but I'm thinking about going back and seeing if those huge Triple Play phlox are still there

I'm sharing plants with co-workers

Subject: Summer plant finds

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: http://www.centertonnursery.com/variety.php?id=gespu 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?
