Comments (8)Michelle from the nursery just called. She said she has no idea what flower I'm even talking about and am I sure I bought it at her nursery (!). Yes, I did - both times. She went on to say that she buys those perennials from some company and sells them and doesn't really remember what she ordered in the Spring. When I told her I could only find two tags, she said that company probably would want to see the plant anyhow not just tags. Well, I told her they've been planted for several weeks now. In the end, she said I could come in and pick out some plants in exchange if I wished; but she wasn't taking the blame for the mistake and will call the company to let them know. "Unfortunately, things like this happen". And of course all the pots of the flowers were gone so she couldn't verify what I told her. Oh, well. Next year maybe I'll find what I originally wanted somewhere else....See MoreHow I made some cool hosta labels for less
Comments (24)Esther, whoops! Sorry, somehow didn't see your response until now! Yes, I saw that other vendors of the dog tags also charge almost as much for shipping the second through gazillionth tag as they do the first, but I think that's because normally they probably aren't selling more than a couple or three at a time -- they're dog tags, and very few people have as many dogs as I have hostas! :) I think next time I'm going to contact the seller ahead of time and ask for cheaper shipping. It cost her $1.71 to ship my tags, and she charged me over $10 in shipping. That's ridiculous. However, I'm very happy with the tags themselves, and I probably will go back for more even if I have to keep paying that much in shipping because the tags look so good. I found some skewers that worked! I found these on Amazon and was able to bend them using pliers by laying them flat on my kitchen counter with the loop hanging over the edge, grasping them right up under the neck of the loop with the pliers, then bending up HARD. I'm scrawny and I could do it, so it would be a cinch for any man and probably most women. These skewers are flat, so I did need the loops that came with the tags, but I really love the finished product, and the skewers are 17" long so they can go deep into the ground and still stick up high enough to read easily without squatting. Here is a link that might be useful: skewers on Amazon...See Morelovetogarden
