well I knew if I worked this show for my old boss I would end up spending more than I made LOL
Had to buy Athyrium filix-femina - a crested fern...
Pinellia Tripartita - Dragon Tails
Tiarella - Sugar n Spice
several foxglove, a bridal wreath HB, and a few other predictables that said "WAIT stop - I know you can grow me from seed but your busy so grab me up at $1.25" LOL
two more days at the show and I'll probably be broke :)
Midlands Plant Festival purchases
Sounds like quite a haul!

It was fun Entilie!! of course I bought more today ughhh...need to leave my check book at home tomorrow lol
I used to take my husband with me as a restraining measure. He's more into gardening now and we buy more than we should together!

LOL...it was funny yesterday this really nice couple - wife looking at herbs, hubby oggling a hanging basket of Fuschia...keeps asking his wife...honey don't you want this...she obviously is more interested in herbs...after like the 12th time he asks I go over to her and say you should make his day and buy that for 'him' he obviously is in love with it....
Amazingly enough we sold out several days in a row on Parrots Beak...seems to be the plant everyone loved this year - we had one HB full of blooms and then 3" pots to sell...we had one couple offer Master tickets for the hanging basket...could not believe the owner said no...I was like you know how much those tickets are!
Somebody around here just sold 2 tickets to the 2012 Master's finals for $6,000.
OMG!
The Owner said no to Master's Tickets? WTH
Wow. i would totally be broke after going!
My big plant splurge this Spring is going to be the Master Gardeners Plant sale in late March. One good thing about this sale is that they post a list of what they'll have for sale beforehand, so you can plan you attack.

I am hoping to go and see what they have and take pics. I am growing ALOT this year so if I have some things ready I may bring them for sale :O)
hey Vic what day are you going this weekend? I do have a signed photo waiting for you from Lee Castoro :)
