Hi Sophie,
I've been to Blanchettes - fun place; on my last visit I bought
several geraniums and huecheras. It is near a friend's house, so we
visit it once or twice a season.
Where are you now? If you are to the north, I know some great places in NH.
A fun way to check out new nurseries is with The Adventurous Gardener
- a review of the "best" nurseries and garden centers in New England.
