Louisville area great sale

18 years ago

Check out Lose Brothers sales across from the mall. Prices are about half of what I normally expect. He has just set up in the vacant filling station across from the mall where Galyans use to be. My wife and I have realy loaded up on some good plants cheap.

Sort by:Oldest

At the link at the bottom is a list of native nurseries in KY, but none are in Louisville. May 17 (Sat) is the Spring Plant Sale at Berheim Arboretum. I've never gone though so don't know what they sell. I think that as the sale time draws closer, you might be able to get/see a list of some things they will be selling. Here is a link that might be useful: 2010 Native nursery list

I am sorry, but I have no idea. I would assume that the selection would be about the same.

Well procrastinator me has just started to dig some 'stuff' for tomorrow, but there's a lot of evening left, if the bugs don't run me in. (have bug spray if needed) So for I have dug (what should be) Historic Daffodil Mrs. R. O. Backhouse This is said to be the first 'pink' daffodil. It opens with sort of a peachy colored cup, which turns more pink as the bloom matures. Also dug species N. poeticus var. recurvus Next to be dug is another historic, Geranium It blooms late and is fragrant. Also, Orangery, a Classic with a split cup. Nance, I'll bring you some pussytoes...anyone else? Not sure what all else I'll dig and hope there will be someone there that wants it...or else Marcia can set the leftovers curbside with a free sign on 'em. Sue...getting all excited about seeing everyone. I'm bringing a 'frozen' desert (I hope anyway) so Marcia, can you make some room in the freezer for it? The hot temps will melt it if left out very long. It will be a 9" X 13" pan.

I have found many nurseries have sales in the fall. Thieneman's and Wallitsch's have big ones early in September. I bought a few 4" pots and herbs at Thieneman's. They were $1 each.

yes many nurseries have fall sales to clear out old merchandise.
This sale was not old stock. It was brought in especially for the sale. I am new to garden web and didntr want to step over any bounds when making my listing , so I didn't mention the name of the Nursery running the sale. It is Bill Lose and like wallitsch and thieneman is a name I remember from the nursery business some 50 plus years ago.
Some of the items my wife and I bought were Miss Kim Lilacs 3 gallon pots for 17.00, Knock out roses for about the same price, 3 gallon pot rhodies for 24 and 1 gallon azaleas for 5.00.
It was also interesting to see 4000 dollar japanese maples being unloaded to be sold out of an old filling station.

I havbe no idea why Bill is doing this maybe his Nursery up in Sellersburg isnt doing well
