JoAnn that is a good time to get your plants in May. My daughter gives me a gift certificate to the local nursery for Mother's day every year. I love my local nursery. I do not buy many plants online anymore.
I usually only buy tropical plants online because I cannot find them local. You know how I love the tropical island look for my patio and I cannot buy those local. I hit Santa Rosa when they have a big sale for Hellebores and the Coral Bells.
