And now that it's finally sunny, I can find a spot where the sun shines enough to plant it.

How cool it would have been to have 9 cheap plants to work around my garden? Never mind that they'll die come winter.<br /><br />Evelyn, thank you!<br /><br />gh1, we just got back from taking in-laws to Cistus...I thought it would be crazy busy but it really wasn't. Did drive by Garden Fever though and they looked to be hopping. So...the rare and unusual area is almost straight at the end of that wide main entrance path outside. They had some sort of tent thing up with rolling shelving under it last time I was there, the rare and unusual table was just to the right of that. Sort of at the end of the shelves with the succulent ground covers. Sorry you weren't able to locate it! But if you did would have have wanted to stand in line to pay?danger gardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09227500551609537140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1018965493805276234.post-95701796596886712010-06-12T15:24:36.690-07:002010-06-12T15:24:36.690-07:00OK Loree, i went to the Portland Nursery on Stark ...OK Loree, i went to the Portland Nursery on Stark and i didn't see the "Rare and Unusual" area. Just exactly where is it?<br /><br />Of course it was a zoo today. What with it being the first day, after the 40 day flood we've been through, that actually had sun. And i can stand very little of being run over by carts and pushed around. So i left rather quickly, and didn't get to all corners.<br /><br />It has been quite some time since i've been there and was amazed at their expansion at that location.greg haworthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00677952204696287196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1018965493805276234.post-84604131397622718682010-06-12T07:40:13.993-07:002010-06-12T07:40:13.993-07:00Fab purchase.

I am surprised my husband hasn't planned an intervention yet.<br /><br />MulchMaid, Portland Nursery! (on Stark)...go! The lovely Echiums that Nestmaker posted about at Garden Fever might be a better bet though. After they bloom they should self seed so you will have babies! These at Portland Nursery will just die. Unless you are a REALLY good overwinter-er or we have a really mellow winter.<br /><br />Grace, another Ensete would make three...how many does a girl need?
