Put five guys together, take an afternoon and what do you get? Chocolate cake and brownies! Well, the brownies didn't turn out *that* good but the cake was great! Too much chocolate in the brownies? Spring is tomorrow, so is Canada Blooms; I can't wait to go! I heard its supposed to be great this year as last year's show wasn't all that great. A lot of people said it wasn't worth the $18 to go see. Guess I'll have to find out myself! I'm jsut hoping there's going to be some 'cheap' tender perennial bulbs that I can buy instead of being stuck buying from local.
Ten bucks for five peonies is quite a deal...but given that its from VoldeMart....I wouldn't buy from them every if its ten times cheaper. Who in the right mind keeps perennial roots in full light and next to the warm air heater? Those stupid 'garden center' employees. That lady's been giving me the eye...I think she knows that I probably know more than her. She probably knows about all the bad habits they use to keep their plants on the verge of death. Believe it or not, I saw some high school part time watering succulents and African violets HEAD ON! And all those poor plants. You know if they actually make use of those hangers and put on flourencent lights, and take five minutes to read up on how to water those plants you mgiht actually make money and not waste and force those living plants to die. Either they die of thirst or get too much water and drown to death. Poor poor plants. Even if they don't cost a lot to buy wholesale, it took the greenhouse a while to raise them. You stupid market monster, all you care about is making money...sepnd the extra few bucks to hire someone who KNOWS what they're doing. Also, if the whole plant is shrivelled up and brown, noone's going to buy it, even after you discount it 10%.
