Garden Centers


I didn't realize there were so many different garden centres around here, and I haven't even seen them all yet. I am enjoying visiting each one though...even if it is late in the season. I do have a pet peeve I'd like to vent about though.

As a new gardener, when I visit a garden centre and see a flower/shrub that I like...I want to see a picture of what the plant will look like when it is full grown, I want to know the name of the plant, I want to know if it's an annual or a perennial and I want to know the price!!! That doesn't seem like a lot to ask IMO...but from what I've seen at the centres I've visited so far...it seems I'm asking a little too much.

Anyway...didn't get to do as much as I'd hoped we'd do outside today because of the weather but we did manage to get a few things done and it all helps. DH was busy cutting down some of the trees that need to go. I was busy planting some of the perennials that I purchased. I'd list the names of the ones I purchased if I knew them.
