2010

Fall is coming (really) and with it new and old faithful fern offerings. Pre-frost days of September and October are ideal for establishing new plantings that will be enjoyable in the fall and rewarding in the spring.

And speaking of spring, following our third year in a row of “unusually” cold winter events which resulted in substantial losses and difficulties with fulfilling catalog orders I have decided that in fairness to customers and to retain a reasonable piece of personal sanity I will no longer issue a catalog in the month of January. Too many frozen listings went to the compost heap instead of to the post office. Consequently spring offerings will be limited and fall availability which can be confidently assessed in mid summer as actual healthy living beings will be expanded. In deference to long time good friends and customers who cherish receiving plants in time to enjoy for the summer season, I will produce an enriched post-hazard spring listing some time in April. Please let me know by submitting an e-address to Foliageg@juno.com if you would like to receive this via e-mail otherwise watch for it in your mail. Thank you and may all of these precautions result in a blizzard free and reasonably normal winter and for that matter spring throughout the country. Well now enough, enough! There are still a few ferns that are alive including some very special offerings. Some are new to the catalog and some are old friends.
