Plant Shopping

I have taken multiple trips to nuseries this year - I have a hard time walking out with nothing.  On this trip, Paramjit joined me.  She wanted to try her hand at some hanging pots and a cactus landscape with some guidance from me.

Our first stop was Natural Gardener; I got there 5 minutes early - BAD IDEA!!!  Traffic was backed up everywhere waiting for the gates to open.  We found quite a few thing here; Petunias,Chocolate Daisy, California Poppies, and more.

Our 2nd stop was Sunshine Gardens up 620.  No pictures, but found some pretty flowers and herbs!  Next on the agenda, Spicewood Spines - all cactus nusery in Spicewood Springs.  I have been there many times and just love the selection and the owners - they are so nice!  Afterwards we decided we were starving and tried out a cafe at the Galleria - it was good.  Last stop for the day was Lowes for some potting soil - but it turned out they had a bunch of annuals on clearance - so we picked up a few more things!  As we were going to leave - Paramjit figured out she had locked her keys in the trunk.  So while waiting for her husband, we hung out in my car.

Here are some flowers Paramjit purchased.
