I made a good score on Sunday when the Mid Atlantic Garden show closed. I had seen a sign at one of the exhibits stating the plants would be sold after the show. After inquiring I found they were @ wholesale prices. Cash in hand does amazing things, esp. when dealing with an exhibitor ILO a vendor. I picked up the following:
Mohonia 'bealei' , 5gal, 4-5 stems
Pieris ' japonica' , 3 gal well branched
Rhododendron ''P.J.M'. hybrid' , probably a 10 gal, 3-31/2' tall (should have had a hand truck!)
and Pulmonaria 'Raspberry Splash' , 1 gal, in flower
I walked in with $100, got my plants, bought 3 cast iron dragon flies for Holly's pond, bought steaks to grill en route home, and had money left when I got home. One heck of a day!LOL Ric
