I'm ordering Ava and a couple of other plants. I will at least give them a chance to see how they do. High Country Gardens has been my favorite mail order place for several years now. Fingers crossed! Group hug

I would expect the same good service, sounds like they are still in charge even if they don't own it. Works for me!
Don't forget the discount code which is Preorder20 it's good till the 28th. Hurray!

Teri,

Kermit (owner of FBTS) offers the plants every so often. When it states out, it doesn't mean that they are completely out for the rest of the season. Email him and ask when the variety you want will likely be available. More importantly, click on the link below the flower pic/desc. that states, email me when this becomes available and get it as soon as you get the email, otherwise they might be out again.

Hope that helps.

OK. It was a mistake for me to order from them. After lots of e mails, no response and no plants.
