I'm so glad to support them in my purchases.Lisa Wagnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08546271182217310594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4859873319068539701.post-72452009304799607702017-04-06T20:31:08.467-04:002017-04-06T20:31:08.467-04:00I am so tired of seeing those same plants everywhe...I am so tired of seeing those same plants everywhere!Lisa Wagnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08546271182217310594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4859873319068539701.post-32423731897283555872017-04-06T08:17:45.180-04:002017-04-06T08:17:45.180-04:00I really enjoyed your post!

For the past several years I've sold, among other plants, a lot of natives at the Transylvania Farmers Market, and my experience is that though people say they want natives, they are a hard sell. It is so easy to sell big blooming baskets of begonias rather than the natives I grow, despite the detailed signage I created for these plants. Thanks so much for encouraging the planting of native plants and encouraging gardeners to shop the small independent growers!Nemophilisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08007481115381352262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4859873319068539701.post-56990322643981264672017-04-04T22:02:29.314-04:002017-04-04T22:02:29.314-04:00I so agree.

Let's not even talk about shrubs! I request more natives every time I go there.Gailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16194325535496408116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4859873319068539701.post-84237797931382095492017-04-04T21:31:43.414-04:002017-04-04T21:31:43.414-04:00Yes!
