I never go into a big box store or most garden centers for advice. I've seen far too many inaccuracies and careless practices. I believe they should stick to BBQ's, plumbing /electrical supplies and lumber.

Cheers, Barrie.

You might be surprised who works in Home Depot garden centers. Take Tom Del Hotal of CRFG fame for example ...

I don't doubt there are a few good people here and there. My experiences have lead me to my conclusions and I hope someday I'll meet a knowledgeable plantsman in one of those stores.

Cheers, Barrie.
