Even though we are on a fixed income here, money is always something we could use, especially with our two little girls. We are always trying to budget our garden purchases.<BR/><BR/>Tina, <BR/><BR/>It's easy to go crazy at plant sales. The temptation to add a neat new plant is just too great sometimes. I tend to think of a spot for the plant before I buy it and justify the purchase of the plant.<BR/><BR/>Lisa,<BR/><BR/>Great find! Although I just bought 12 plants for $12 dollars. ;) I'll tell about them in a post next week!Davehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00524456191483377274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7090836288987201219.post-53804569945356942432008-07-03T18:23:54.171-05:002008-07-03T18:23:54.171-05:00I just found two Dianthus in 4" pots for $1 a piece today at my hometown nursery.

Your first rule for buying a discount plant was right on-it has to add value. I see a sale and just kind of go crazy and worry about the value later. Sigh. Too many plants probably and lots of wasted money. I will think of this post next time.tinahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17415302577518111227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7090836288987201219.post-40629286516988353082008-07-02T20:59:24.344-05:002008-07-02T20:59:24.344-05:00That was a lot of good info and your flowers are so pretty. We are defenitly on a budget most of the time. We were laughing the other night about how nice it must be to be on a fixed income..Ours is pretty unfixed. I don't work anymore (health) and Billy is self employed so it is getting a little tough to have money left over for flowers. So this info is welcome.

Very bright and sunny looking. It has a nice bushy shape too.<BR/><BR/>Frances,<BR/><BR/>Those definitely count for me! You're making me jealous, I'd love a couple of the 'White Swan' echinaceas and some of that salvia! I suppose a plant hunt is in order!Davehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00524456191483377274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7090836288987201219.post-61860378287538668392008-07-02T19:10:07.842-05:002008-07-02T19:10:07.842-05:00Lowe's had a three for ten dollar sale today and the lemon and lime was brought home, with two white swan echinaceas. They had salvia gregii for $1.98, I got three. Does this count for your list?Frances,http://www.blogger.com/profile/03616568389165362993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7090836288987201219.post-22660030084566097882008-07-02T18:27:52.966-05:002008-07-02T18:27:52.966-05:00I have Lemons & Oranges, too and love this plant.
