Botanus

coupon

If you are ordering anything from their spring catalogue, be sure and mention the coupon in the Canadian Gardening mag.

PROMO035

will get you a free Oriental Lily 'Dizzy'. Just key it in if you order on-line.

Oh sure, Brenda....make us spend more money..lol.
;) Donna

Well....if your spending anyway - you might as well get the bonus. I can't find anything there for me.

"Dizzy" is a beautiful lily!

OK I lied, I did order a couple of things. Not to get the bonus, but there were a couple of perennials I should have. Who can resist Hellebores at that price. But I can use another Dizzy too cause yes it is a beautifu lily. Anemone leveillei looks a bit different and Iike that blue in the center.

Now on to more catalogues....

Tut, tut.....lol. I'm resisting!
;p Donna

My resistance for all catalogues is very low.

Me too - I think they use subliminal messages in the flower pictures, we can't really all be this weak, can we?:)

I'll let you know how weak when I'm finished ordering.

It's like food photography - even things I hate, (like liver,) look fabulously delicious in those kinds of photos

something must be wrong with me, i haven't ordered anything from anyone this year. do you suppose it is terminal?

Yes, there must be something wrong with you. I know there is something wrong with me because I haven't ordered nearly enough seeds or plants yet. BTW yur absence around here has been sadly noticed.

Time is zipping by, you realise, and soon you'll be looking sadly at all the bare spots in your gardens, and wondering "Why on earth didn't I order 16 times as much?:)

for some reason brenda the world seems to be going by faster this year and i seem to be moving slower with less time for DG and other important stuff like ordering plants etc

i''m sure i will have more time now that the days are getting longer tehe

I'm finding that happening to me too Lynne, but I'm not even getting ANYTHING done. I have time for DG though, it's easy to stop in here every little bit as I browse all those catalogues from morning till night. It's time to quit shopping and start seeding. Still waiting on a few orders though.

2z, I don't usually have a problem filling in a few bare spots where something didn't make it. It seems like I have to expand my gardens every year to plant more seedlings. Plus all the fun I have visiting the local nurseries and those great finds.

I just got an email from Canada Post informing me that Botanus mailed a parcel to me. THIS AFTERNOON. Why would they mail it out on a Friday afternoon so the plants can sit in a box an extra couple of days. Why oh why oh why. Some nurseries even specify that they only ship out plants on Monday or Tuesday. Fingers crossed, and toes and eyes.

I would've expected better from them.......I haven't run into any supplier that would ship on a Friday. :S

Fingers crossed for you echoes!

echoes, I have found them very receptive to suggestions/ feedback from customers - let them know what you think!

Because that is very silly and without foresight...
