Very nice selection of plants! Many of the prices are excellent! Can't beat $5.95 for yarrow, butterfly weed, coneflower, and so on! For some of the more common herbs, though, I like to purchase these in 4" pots; a lot of nurseries sell these in their 'herb' section during spring and early summer for only $2-$3 each! *Love* that kind of herb! :-D In fact, that's how I found my chamomile! Big Grin But they are also offering a lot of hard to find herbs, or plants that are usually sold in the perennial section for $8-$10 a pot or more, so the $5.95 looks like a great price to me!

For me, unless a plant grows easily and readily from seed, I often find it works better to look for a small inexpensive starter pot of it somewhere. Whistling
