There are so many places to purchase plants!
MY PLANT SALE INFO IS BELOW!
You can travel to all parts of the
globe and send away to many different catalogs or web sites but you have to keep
in mind a couple of things!!
 |
You can find some local gardeners and not have to
travel very far.
|
| Locally grown plants are almost always guaranteed to grow
because they were grown in your zone (we are zone 6 (-10) but we went
down to zone
4 the winter of 2004 when we went down to -30!) If you purchase plants at a nursery or
store, check the tag for the zone, if none is listed, you might want to
check a plant book to see what the zone is before purchasing the plant.
|
| If
you buy plants from my garden, they will grow in yours-no need to check for
the zone
|
| Your garden conditions--see under the conditions tab above to
check out more information on zones, climate, soil and water.
|
| If
you are in the Wakefield, MA area or like to travel, I sell perennials,
perennial herbs, perennial mums, scented geraniums from spring to fall ( I usually have
scented geraniums in rose, citronella--mosquito
plant, and mint scents) and they can be planted outdoors in
containers or in the ground or as house plants).
|
|
Scented
Geraniums are herbs, 4" terra cotta pots are $4. Cuttings available all the
time for $3 each...call/email me to put in
your order.

My Rose Scented Geranium in bloom--"Rosie"
