Holla if you do.

I'm going back down this weekend for the second part of the open house for the season (it's two weekends to allow for inclement weather, which sure came in handy last weekend. Should be nice, as they're calling for 79 degrees Saturday and Sunday.

Will do. I haven't been to the Raleigh area in a few years but I've always loved the area.

I had a whole bunch of things in my cart, but the shipping costs turned me away. $50 for shipping did not impress.

Made my repeat visit today, and did a bit more "damage". But on the bright side, my yard is going to be super-beautiful when it's all planted and growing.

Congrats! The Mojito elephant ears are gorgeous! Good thing you got one while they're still in stock. When I was down there yesterday, doing my part to "stimulate the economy" , they were definitely thinning out their stock in them.

Enjoy!

Welcome to PlantDelightsaholics NonAnonymous. I'm so excited for you to get your stuff! I haven't had a chance yet to update my list either with my new purchases from this last weekend's visit. Will try to get to it tonight. But we're all gonna have some pretty yards, that's for sure. We'll all have to post pictures/updates as they grow.

yippee!!!

Fedex just dropped off my plants!!

The iris, green echinacia, "get nekkid" hosta, and mojito elephant ear are out in the yard soaking up some water to re-hydrate after their captivity in a shipping box. Will plant tomorrow. The Echinacea 'Tomato Soup' is on backorder & due to ship 4/29. Especially love my "friends don't let friends buy annuals" t-shirt (tee-hee-hee) -- a poke at hubby who keeps complaining that as soon as he opens up a new spot for annuals, I fill it up with perennials . Sorry, Larry, I'll still get petunias & such for all of my pots!!

Can't wait to see how they do here in my yard!

Thanks for sharing the info on this place!

Wow, I still haven't gotten my order but it was probably a good thing as I was out of town last week. Hopefully it'll come this week and I can plant them next weekend.

Definitely post pics when you get a chance and I'll do the same.
