Perennials

    

In February 2009, we asked for your opinions on many of our programs and practices in an effort to better meet your needs.  Across the board, everyone liked our perennial variety selection but the one underlying suggestion was to increase the quantity per variety!  We thank you all very much for your candid responses and have begun to put your suggestions into effect. 

 

While we will continue to carry many perennials in #1 Pots in limited quantities, throughout the Spring, Summer and Fall seasons we will be stocking larger quantities of the below listed perennial varieties in #2 pots.  While these will be our target varieties, we will be adding to the list so check back often and we of course welcome your further suggestions, paticularly if there are varieties you need that we are not carrying.

 

Please use this table as a guide and do not hesitate to contact us if you are looking for something you do not see listed below!
