Flowers/shrubs

Ok its getting about that time, I have my flower beds ready just need to get my flowers and shrubs.. who has the best prices.. I need to get quiet a bit of stuff so will any locals give me a discount for buying in bulk..

I am wanting day lillies, nandina's, and I need something else that can stand alot of sun, any suggestions?

thanks

 

You should grab some canna's (or however you spell them), they love sun.

For what it's worth, a few years ago, HG and I raided my parents yard, they have tons of iris's and yellow canna lillies. If you aren't scared of the potential for poison ivy, I'll go over there with you one afternoon and you can dig up as many as you want.

 

Crepe myrtles, Loropetalums are sun lovers, check out the Japonica pieris also between the pieris and petulams you get varying degree of color thru out the year...

 

Want to take a trip to my mom's house?

She'll give you whatever you want. You should see her manicured flower beds.

Let me know.

She won't mind at all, AND especially since I know you and you know Bev. :lol:

 

I have 3 crepe myrtles I need to plant right now somewhere, but the problem is I have 4 acres to deal with, so I am starting on the front beds this year, I did one last year up on a hill in my yard.. I might try to get some pics posted.. It took awhile to get done, but its awesome. Just hope everything comes back this year

 

thanks maybe we can get together one weekend in April. BTW did she ever get in touch with ya.

 

Yep on FB, I have her # now.

Oh and I saw your daddy yesterday and your neice & nephew. Man, those little ones are some talkers, wonder if I could hire them for sales?? LMAO!

 

LOL yep they will talk your ears off.. They must of been walking the hood' dad tries to get them out more

 

Check out those others they are basically carefree with beauty and change thu the year... I personally like stuff with minimum upkeep but showy.. :cheers:

 

Loropetalums, I have looked at before and love the color.. Yeah I love low maintenance thats the best!

 

My Grandmother has a nusery off of saunders rd. it is called Charlynn nursery. She is always cheaper than anywhere else and has a huge selection.

 

thanks, I will give them a buzz to get a quote from them for my shrubs

 

I noticed at Lowes the other day that they have flats of pre-planted bulbs for sale, not sure which plants they were or what the price was though. I thought about getting some as I always forget to plant bulbs in the fall. :banghead:

 

great, and then report back to us! :lol:

 

You can get nice size bunches of daylillies reasonably priced at the daylily farm on 50 in Garner. Usually they open on weekends starting in May, and go through weekends in June & July. Everything they sell is in rows in their field, that way if you go once a month, you get can get a good idea of the early, mid and late season bloomers so you'll have color from daylily's for 3 months.

 

where at on 50, is that the name of it?
