Posts: 1207	Posted: May/13/2006 10:20 AM PST The 100+ acre Arboretum down the street is having thier annual plant sale today : ) What's great about this one is that they pretty much focus on plants that are specifically for my area (deer resistant and shade/woodland) and they have horticulturists advising for free. I can't wait to come back to tell ya'll what I got : ) Quote \| Reply \| Report

I think these are a native variety in white. I also got 2 pots of Hens and chicks...a red one and a green one with lots of chicks! Should the HC's just go in pots? Quote \| Reply \| Report

Stupid plant. Hate the darn thing and I know so much about it. Lucky you, Briar... our Arboretum doesn't have its plant sale until Sept! Quote \| Reply \| Report

Also picked up some Honeysuckle and a trellis for the side of the garage that faces our new patio. I wish I had taken some before shots of the area, it was horrid. Quote \| Reply \| Report

Maybe you should start a deer resistant plants thread, Mainegal. Quote \| Reply \| Report
