I would like to start collecting orders from Calgarians (and area if you can pick it up) interested in getting something from The Heather Farm.
Let me know what you are interested in ordering and I will add you to the list below. Please also let me know whether or not it would be ok if they substitute if they are out of a variety. If there are a few orders that do mind, I will let them know that we don't want them to substitute.
I would like to have all orders in by March 1 (or thereabouts - I will be in midterms so the date might change). I will let you know your total when I have all of the orders in, and I will mark PD by your name below once you have paid me.
What I would like to do is to have you pick up your order once it comes in as I am confined to transit. I will do my best to be accommodating to everyone. I though I would pick a Saturday afternoon or something where the most people can stop by to pick up their order and socialize with other gardeners. If you can't make it, we will figure something out!
The deal: We get 10% off of an order of 10 or more plants. From an email I received from them, their collections provide a lower price per plant.
This is the first time I have done this, so hopefully it goes smoothly! I am open to any ideas that might make this run more smoothly :)

The Heather Farm Roses/Heather Orders
Here is a post from joanna from the other thread:
I emailed the Heather Farm for recommendation of their top 12 most fragrant continuous bloomers. here's what they came back with:
thanks for the request and sorry for the delay. These are all very good roses with good fragrance, health and vigor. Sun Sprinkles, Hot Tamale, Lavender Crystal, Raspberry Punch, Centerpiece, Loving Touch, Peaches & Cream, Heartbreaker, Carrot Top, Sweet Marie, Starina, Dorola. Bye for now.
I find that since our climate is so dry in Calgary, most fragrant roses are only noticeable right up & close. If you bring some indoors, it will perfume an entire room though. Early morning & evening is the best for a garden stroll to smell the roses. They are hardly noticeable in the afternoon, unless you have your nose in the flower
