I've finally joined this thread. Took some time to catch up. Didn't read the previous three, just this one.

Allison, those are some nice things you're getting from HCG. I love them. Got some really nice things from them last year.

Jen, I adore those fairy houses! Too much money for me, but I could afford one of the doors. So cute! Love all the Gnome stuff. I especially like this one:

Nice haul on those primula from Seneca. Yes, too bad they are going out of business. I got a bunch of nice things from them last spring that are now coming up.

Celeste, I will have to look for that peony at Walmart. I buy Atlas pink gloves that support the S.G.Komen BCF, at a local nursery. That's a pretty delphinium. I think delphs are a short lived perennial anyhow, not just for us here. There are some that are longer lived. Here's one that Annie's Annuals and Perennials sells that they say is reliably perennial. http://www.anniesannuals.com/plt_lst/lists/general/lst.gen.a...

Frank, I just had to bookmark Greenhous Megastore for future reference. I usually end up getting lots of free pots, as people know I pot up plants to sell, but you never know when I might need more than what I have.

Dem, nice haul on the Wally World roses!

Bill, Audubon has several things I'd like to order. Broke now. Owe $800 on taxes between feds and state. Ouch!

I mentioned on another thread that I went to a local nursery in Bridgewater called Spillaine's. Anyhow, they were selling perennials from last year for $2 a pot. Most were 1 gal. pots. I got about 16

I'm missing one plant in that list, but can't think of what that might be. Here is a picture of my pots, not including the tree, which I neglected to photograph.
