Holy crap! I live near (22 miles, 45 min. drive) Ted's Greenhouse and I never heard of it! I looked it up online and it is a very big operation with a huge selection.

Several decades ago, there were many large commercial greenhouse growers in the Chicago area, e.g., Jamaican Gardens, Elmhurst Flower Growers, Amlings, etc., that are now gone. With their demise, the wholesale grower supply companies, e.g., Florist Products and BFG, also left the Chicago area. I wonder where Ted's Greenhouse buys its grower supplies because, without nearby grower supply companies, shipping charges will kill you.
