Hi mingsmimi, I will do some homework in the morning, I have a friend who runs a Catholic bookstore and I will check out this question and email you when I get info. You know we see St. Francis of Assisi all the time but he is not the patron of gardening, but St. Fiacre. My bro informed me of this, what do you know about him?I don't know anything.

Recently there was a thread with some hyperlinks to sites about him. Maybe Louisa can recall where they were? Or do a search?

Hi Mings,
Try this hyper-link....
This man is a sculpter from this area, he does some really neat things. This one is under $50, but it's quite heavy, so I don't know what the shipping would be. We sell his work at the flower shop where I work, everyone here just loves him.

Hope that helps

Hi mingsmimi, I did my research today. There is a store in Salem, Oregon called Holy Family Supply who can get these heavy duty outdoor plastic statues, that are painted lifelike,solid white, or granite looking finish, these are 3 different options. They are 24 inches tall, the granite looking one is $55 and the white one is $48.50. They are made by a company called Space Age Plastics and they wholesale only. The store phone number is 503.588.1071. I don't know what the shipping would be, maybe they could order one and have it shipped directly to you too. They could even send you a picture she said. I have a little angel statue made out of this material and it is really nice, not just cheapy lightweight plastic. Good Luck.
