JB--You are such a trip!!!!!

I KNOW you think I walk on water---but not everything is magic just because i work at the HD.
I have NO powers to take back damaged plants (I am not even cashier certified) and no one else will
either--unless they are Trees, Shrubs, Evergreens, etc--or perennials. WITH a receipt!!!!
as HD DOES guaranty all these for one full year. Nothing else is returnable---receipt or not...
BUT--then there is always the "keeping ALL customers happy" and many people get by with lying and cheating...

*****BTW--Our HD now has ALL trees (Except Jap. Maples and Crape Myrtles) and shrubs (except Evergreens)
at 50% off npow. Not sure this is across the board with all HD's--or just our Store.
You can call yours and inquire...

Judy--YES!!!! We have piles of the Krossa Regal Hostas. Lots and Lots...
They were on a rack as well as on a table. And, YES! The name was on the little sticker in the pot....

This makes me think back to another plant that was just EVERYWHERE foe that ONE year--
and no one has seen it since. That is the Kopper King Hibiscus. I bought 2--one made it and now
dazzles walkers by when it blooms....The other petered out...
Honestly--Not pone year--nowhere--have I seen the KK since....
Hoping this New Hosta does not fall in that category....

Sale still going on until Wed, night--ALL 6" annuals (in the white pots) --4/$10.
Such pretty plants available.....we have racks and racks--and a couple tables full too....
I picked up 3 pots--2 of a beautiful, wine red--with white eye--Vinca--and one pot of PURE white petunias.

See here....
1--"Regal Hostas"--one side of the rack--showing stickers properly ID'ing them--
2--The other side of the rack...I think they were $7.97--or something....
3--The 3 pots of annuals I bought
4--A close-up of the pretty wine-pink Vincas.
