After observing the same color, same way-too-early blooming foxgloves at three different stores (Lowes, Haggen, and I forget where else), I am concerned that many smallish 'sidewalk nurseries' likely purchase from the same wholesale nursery(s). The stores will have no idea (or control) what is being sprayed by the wholesaler. I'll question my local nurseries (the real ones) a bit closer to find out what they know about their sources as well. This spraying thing is very worrisome for me.
