Thanks! I tend to forget Strybing, but like their sales because they usually don't conflict with others.

There's also the Markham sale on Feb 28th, starts at 10AM.

I've hit a couple of the plant sales I listed at the top of this thread and found some great buys and interesting new plants.

Here's another of my favorites done by some local gardening friends. Last fall they had a large selection of unusual Salvias.
