I was reading Andrew's post below (please respond to his post) about Mahonia "Soft Caress" and I've discovered a very prominent wholesale nursery in Atlanta that sells it. They let me buy things from them so I'm going to try to put together a group of us that want to buy this magnificent C. Radicalis look-alike (well, almost). Y'all send me a private message if you're interested. I'm going to encourage Randy to start selling them. And Jim Rogers at Nearly Native Nursery. Also, anyone want to rent a truck and go buy frost cloth at GroSouth. I need some. A role of 200 yards by 12 feet of heavy duty frost cloth costs about $250. GroSouth is wholesale only so I can use my Tropical DreamScapes business to purchase for you. We could split the cost of a Home Depot truck rental. Last but not least, I'm going to purchase a power generator for this winter, and I recommend you consider the same thing. Aside from having a family that gets incredibly grumpy when the power is out, one of these years, we're going to have a good old fashioned ice storm combined with an Arctic freeze and single digits and I could lost half the plants in my garden if the power goes out. Please respond to Andrew's message below and let's develop some discussion about Mahonia Soft Caress.
