Went to the local farm store Monday and they had some of their spring bulbs in. I love elephant ears and went looking for them. Before I found them I seen asp. crowns, then rhubarb and then strawberries, oh my goodness, just boxes full of strawberry crowns.
They wern't packaged like I usually find them, just bundles of 10 crowns stuffed in the boxes. With a price on the box of 39 cents.
I asked the greeter how they were priced and she went to a cash out stand and said she thought by the notes there that each bundle of 10 was $.39. She then scanned one of the boxes and decided she was correct.
WELL I bought 20 bundles of strawberries and 5 rhubarb roots and headed home.
I then called my gardening buddiy and told him about my purchase and he asked me to pick some up for him.
Yesterday I got his and I ended up buying all they had left plus 5 more rhubarb roots and still forgot my elephant ears!!!
By the way, the rhubarb was $1.39 per root stock.
Since the weather is a little better, but the ground is too wet to plant I decided to put some of the strawberry crowns in 5 gal buckets out in the green house. so far I've got about 100 stuck in the dirt.
THANX RICH
