(exception is the skinned-up yuccas = not) A fellow plant nerd in DFW told me about their 4" pots of so many tough plants, not just as herbs or perennials. My first time in '11, I was hooked - I could see living in ATX just to have that as a plant resource...but alas, no dice.<br /><br />At least a white Lexus SUV is far more reliable and shows less dirt than a black Hummer:-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6808857981868159973.post-39312135273171227692013-10-18T10:03:06.122-05:002013-10-18T10:03:06.122-05:00Love the wireless check out system and everything ...Love the wireless check out system and everything else about this cool nursery.

They almost always have a "specials" table on the way into the store where I find lots of good deals too. That's so neat that you made the trek to Austin!Allyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07430849998788960134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6808857981868159973.post-24727119724333753362013-10-18T03:16:21.524-05:002013-10-18T03:16:21.524-05:00You seemed to have a happy hunting with "Tota...You seemed to have a happy hunting with "Total Eclipse of the Cart":) I was very intrigued by Spiky plants displayed in sand.
