Porterweed

Houston, TX(Zone 9a)

My porterweed didn't survive our freeze. I'm really missing it. I loved that plant. Does anyone know where one can be obtained in Houston. I found that one at Cornelius midsummer last year. I really want to replace it.

What color are you looking for?

The Woodlands, TX(Zone 8b)

Crowelli, Knolan and I found some at The Arbor Gate in Tomball, they had the coral, purple, and a dwarf red. Is that too far to drive? Good luck if you can get out of that place with just one plant!!! LOL

Ooooh! A garden center I haven't been to. I'll make the trip to Arbor Gate. The one I had last year was purple, but I'd love to find the coral one. Thanks for the info. I know what I'm doing this weekend!

Be prepared...take out a loan or something....they have such a fantastic selection! And, their herbs are amazing!

Yep, Caldwell's is awesome too. They have it and so does Enchanted Forest. I'm in trouble these days because Enchanted Forest is only a 20 minute drive for me. I've now been 3 times in 3 weeks. Can we say "Blow the Budget"?

I agree with Fly...you better call a banker before you go! LOL! Fly bought the coral and I bought the purple. We're going to start cuttings for each other. I'd be happy to start one for you too.

Would the Antique Rose Emporim have them? I have to be in Brenham in May for high school graduation. Why not kill two birds with one stone?

Sugar Land, TX(Zone 9a)

I'd bet they have some fore sure! That's a great place and they carry all the things for BF's that are capable of growing in our area. Have you been yet? It's such an awesome place. So many ideas...so much to take in.

Houston, TX(Zone 9a)

Knolan, thaks so much for the offer of a cutting. If I can't find one this weekend, I'll take you up on it.

Thanks to everyone for the nursery locations. I'm contacting the bank now for a "garden line of credit"! LOL

I, TX(Zone 8a)

Yes, I have been to the ARE. I always spend way too much money but everything always does well that I get there. I can't wait to get to go!
