Hello Claire & Kemberly
Both of whom keep trying to convert me over to using the *A* word in my
garden. You never know. I just learned that one of my major wholesaler
suppliers is making some changes over the winter. The last couple of years
they have edged over into alpines and troughs... I now hear that their major
salesperson has convinced them to go annual and tender perennial for large
pot culture. Should be interesting to see this all develop. I know there is
a swing back toward more emphasis on annual once more... not that it ever
went away.
I will practice using the *A* word.......
