Great stuff, love the winter yellow mugos or contorta, they're well on their way.

Yep, please list the new celebrities for us.

Abies lasiocarpa arizonica 'Glauca Compacta'
Abies procera 'DelBar Cascade'
Larix laricina 'Blue Sparkler'
Picea abies 'Gold Dust'

I plan on ordering some Japanese Maples come spring.

too many to list

Hey,john,,did you get any plants in the ground yet ?
cold coming,,ron

Has anyone ordered from Western Evergreen's buying program where they send you a random assortment of #1's?

http://westernevergreen.com/catalog.html?material=2563066&desc=Woodland+Gems%E2%84%A2+collection+Assorted+30

should have started your own post.. since this has nothing to do with the original ... other than the title ....

it says at your link: -Labels are customizable with your Garden Center / Nursery's name and a Barcode if needed

its a wholesale offering ... will they sell it to you ... will the price change???..etc

@Ken

Could you send me a copy of the rules for posting on Ken's Conifer forum?

Ken has a point - I've been wondering about your same question. I think he is trying to say you might get more answers and clear things up for people wondering the same thing. I don't think he intended to irritate you - at least I hope not.

Ken's trying to be helpful, he's just direct. I know I often skip over posts that started years ago. You're more likely to get a better response to your specific question by starting your own post.

Email Jason Hupp at info@westernevergreen.com

I've not ordered the buying program assortment, but have ordered conifers and am extremely happy with them.

I signed up for an account and payment was through paypal only. It was worth it.

Barb

WOW , relax

Well, I think there's a time and place for everything. Some of Ken's post crack me up and I would miss not having them. I'll be "direct" with people when I have to be as well.

However in this case I don't think he's being fair to say the bumper's post had NOTHING to do with the OP's post. They are about the same nursery! By the standards of some thread bumpers, that's actually a pretty reasonable coefficient of correlation! I personally wouldn't order a random assortment of anything...but if conifer kid really wants that for some reason, I can see why he thought to bump this thread. Maybe not necessary, but not an outrageous violation of board protocols.

I think with a program like that, you're basically going to get the leftovers. Not to put down the nursery, but that's what they would logically send out in such a batch. You're not going to get the rarer and more desirable stuff. So, by definition it's not intended for serious collectors (which most of us are, presumably) but rather punters grazing at garden shops. "Cute little conifers" seems to be a retailing trend in horticulture right now.
