Pottsey's garden

If I recall, when Pottsey first wrote, she mentioned that she had
purchased about 100 new plants.  I agree with Val that the gallon
sized plants are more satisfactory for instant rewards but at $7.00 or
more per plant, that would really add up to a pretty hefty initial
investment.  So many others have assured us that given a year or two
our little plants will be respectable adults to be proud of and if
Pottsey is like me, she may be a little disenchanted by some of the
things she planted.  I am not at all impressed by my columbines I
planted last fall.  I'm glad I didn't invest too much in them.  If
they decide to abandon my garden, I shall not shed crocodile tears. 
Until we know what we really like and what looks well with what, we
beginning gardeners might be smart to limit our investment with new
varieties.
