I had trouble a while back and had to call to order but it has worked lately. Something is wonky about their server I think.But that doesn't help if you just want to browse.

Metasequoia glyptostroboides 'North Light' - This conifer, with it's soft foliage simply stops people in their tracks...not only that, but it's a Redwood that will fit nicely into most smaller gardens! This post was edited by SC77 on Thu, Aug 28, 14 at 22:04

They once contacted me to say a rare item - the obviously most rare one in my order - was not available, and offered to cancel the whole order. A lot of places will just ship the order with the one item you really wanted missing! I have also met them at a local plant sale, including Adam I think. I enjoyed talking to him. They seem like a class act.

I didn't know about a St. Patrick's Day planting schedule for other plants, but both my grandfather and my father always planted potatoes as close to St. Patrick's Day as possible. Of course you must take into account the weather and soil conditions. I watch the 10 day weather forecast closely, and plant accordingly. For instance, seeing that we have several above average temperatures ahead during the next ten days, AND the forecast for rain today, I spent a lot of time in the garden preparing beds for seeding, then planted my first batch of onions and potatoes yesterday (March 13). I also planted a new Red Blaze Climbing Rose. It seems that if the soil becomes saturated and cold weather returns, you can often miss out on optimal planting dates. Right now, my peonies are sprouting up to about 6 inches and my lilacs are full of unopened buds. Another thing I watch for is the leafing of Oak trees- I feel more comfortable in planting warmer weather crops when the Oaks tell me that warm weather has arrived. Ron Z
