Just got a order from Plant Delight Nursery. I was really surprised with the size of these plants, as they are known for shipping small plants. Great selection & great service.

Todd,
Nice variety.

What's with the cocktail onions all over the Shira? :lol:

I bought my Sapphire Skies y.rostrata from Plant Delights, really impressed with the plants and their customer service.
Tony Avent writes a nice newsletter too.

Also love his "It's hardy until I've killed it myself...three times" saying.

WOW, those look great! I just orderd some agave from them the other day. :D I have noticed if you order from them in the fall the plants seem to be bigger. I don't know if this is normal for them or not, but I have always liked thier plants. I do think thier shipping is a little high though. :)

Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.

Check your order status. I ordered them Dec 15 and they emailed me that they would ship on March 15. I emailed them back and told them I would not wait 3 months or I was canceling my order... Got another email they would ship the next week... :wink:
