There is a PSA sale this Saturday in Rosenberg, TX.
See the PSA site. http://www.theplumeriasociety....
Wish I could go, but hte 5 hour drive from the DFW area to the Houston area is just to far.
Maybe next year.

Surrounded by enablers! That's not even an hour drive for me. And there are two very good nurseries close by as well.

C'mon Lonnie, it's really only about 4 hours if you don't dawdle on the way. And Saturday's rain chance is only 40%.

Gotta go polish my Visa card Hurray!

Easy. Think Gulf Coast Texas (citrus, grapefruit, palms), not west Texas (tumbleweeds).

I went. Only an hour from where I live. Maintained a little self-control and I only picked up a Charlotte Ebert and a Thorton Lemon Drop, but they are very nice multi-tip plants. It was overcast, so not too hot, and didn't rain while I was there. Enjoyed it very much. I got there a little early and was standing in the doorway when a guy started pushing some HEB shopping carts in right before they told us we could come in. It was great. Felt like the cavalry had arrived!
