THE OLD SIGN PHILOSOPHER, THOUGHT FOR THE DAY!

A TRANQUILIZER IS NOT AS EFFECTIVE.......
AS A SUNNY SPRING DAY

NURSERY STOCK ROLLING IN DAILY

The trucks keep rolling into the Greenscape Gardens. Yesterday three loads of mulch, one tandem of topsoil and another tandem of compost. Today, we were greeted with a truckload of nursery stock from Oklahoma which included some awesome Bracken's Brown Magnolias, extra large Foster Hollies, Pee Gee Hydranga trees and some variegated azaleas. That truck pulled out and 30 minutes later a truck from Oregon arrived. It was packed with nursery stock from three Oregon growers. This is the first time we have been able to consolidate into one truck this much stock, therefore saving over a thousand dollars of freight. Take a look at the photo from today's Oregon truck. The truck included the largest selection of Japanesse Maple varieties. Outstanding Sargentti crabs, weeping cherries, beeches......too many to name.
Come in a check for yourself (hopefully we'll have them put away by Saturday).

DISCOVER THE FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT HOME IN KIRKWOOD

On some warm spring day, (hopefully soon) check out the Frank Lloyd Wright House in Kirkwood. Its located on Ballas Road just south of Dougherty Ferry Road. St. Louis County has restored the home, however check with the County Parks for admission times since it seems closed more than open and parking is very limited. Another Frank Lloyd Wright house in the news.

Some of the best scenes in the movies never make it to the Silver Screen. Lately it seems that more outtakes are being shown during the credits. Check out this site for the movie bloopers.
