THE OLD SIGN PHILOSOPHER, THOUGHT FOR THE DAY!

LOTTERY..........A BAD MATH TAX

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Things are really hopping at the garden center. Fed Ex brought more annual flowers to be planted in our custom hanging baskets. The 1300 Knockout Roses planted last week are already starting to bud. As soon as the spring weather arrives they'll all go on the drip irrigation system outside, to make way for another crop in hoop house #1. Hoop house #2 is backed with last year's fall nursery stock and 2000 perennials that we overwintered. The planting crew has been turning out perennials and slowly the perennial house is coming alive. Spring is only 5 weeks away, but if you're looking for a spring fix....come to the garden center. Boy, I almost forgot that another shipment of pottery arrived today. Jennifer and Chris have selected some of the best looking pottery available in St. Louis. The one aspect I have found very encouraging is the amount of traffic already SPENDING MONEY at the garden center. A sure sign of spring.
