I just posted this today (recommendations feature on American Meadows regarding HCG). Read it on the Garden Watchdog on DG.
I just read today that American Meadows owns High Country Gardens. This is what I read....
In 2013, High Country Gardens is celebrating its 20th anniversary under new ownership. High Country is now owned by American Meadows, similar to High Country Gardens, a leader in direct-to-consumer gardening products. David Salman, High Country's founder, will continue as Chief Horticulturist and be focused on developing the innovative, eco-friendly and waterwise perennials that the brand is known for. Thank you for all of your loyalty and support.

I've hoping that all the great service, plants and organic products that I've been getting from HCG since Spring 2005 will continue under the new ownership. HCG is in NM and AM is in VT. Hopefully, things will run smooth especially since they're so far apart.
