Message: [QUOTE="galmal, post: 43127, member: 1791"] I think for the regular, ordinary type flowers, the big box stores are just fine, as long as you look carefully at the plant and make sure it looks healthy. The problem that I find with them, is they don't have much selection and certainly don't carry anything "exotic" or unusual. However, their prices are a lot better, and I live in a very rural area and the nearest nursery is twice as far away. So for me, when I'm buying things like pansies, petunias, mums etc, I go to the big box stores, but when I want a nice specimen plant, I drive the extra distance and pay the top price for a nursery plant.
