Bobbi asks:
>>What about Wayside Gardens? ANyone dealt with them lately? They used to be
the ONLY place to get trees and shrubs.<<
I have. And I've won some and lost some. I had very bad luck with a new
rose and have about decided that some roses just photograph very well and
aren't worth the space in the garden. This would be Paul Bocuse.
However, I have high hopes of a flowering cherry tree, supposed to be the
same kind they have in Washington , D. C. It has tolerated being here for
months and hasn't grown much, but spring will tell the tale. Also got a
couple of fig trees from them recently that I'll keep in pots.
Wayside sends me an online newsletter, and I'm always a sucker for a pretty
picture. While the catalogs come with the regularity of a clock striking,
the online offerings are so easy to order. Sigh.
