Plants

I need some right this minute.

Where's the best place to go? I've been to Lowes x3, Home Depot, Dearness Gardens (but way too expensive as I need a lot, not just one) and a place off Statesville Road.

I want some shrubs, a couple of small trees like a jap maple or something, and some pansies. I want big face, healthy, colorful pansies, not a bunch of pansy ass pansies.

I hate plants. My wife's will make their annual return to my man cave in the coming days from the porch.

I didn't like the price list, I want everything priced on the plant, it took too much time to look everything up. However- I enjoyed looking around, they had some very pretty things.
Thanks!

Ford's

Don't bother - they buy it from greenhouses and mark that stuff up like 200 -300% I'm not kidding.

and they have a comparatively small selection.

I have some. Well, not really plants, but some bits and pieces of plants

Heard that the DEA found some the other day. They always seem to throw them away. Guess they can not find homes of them. Maybe if you came forward and said you will take care of them and give them a loving home. Maybe they will not have to throw away.
