Jennifer, I read DG after reading your post and see what you mean. It seems like, however, that the people who were satisfied were mostly gardeners who knew their plants. I have had my share of losses by buying wonderful plants that took more babying that I could or would give. Or they didn't do well where I planted them. I've gotten quite brutal over time, sort of a Live Well or Die mindset. So I LOVE my Iris, oriental lilies, semps and cyclamen b/c they give so much for so little. Arrowhead has a fab collection of semps and I would be out of control if I got near that place! So I say go, buy what you know and avoid the unusual, exotic stuff that it sounds like they baby... And have a fun outing!
