I just don't want to spend it on Bonnie plants! A couple of years ago they were responsible for the blight that wiped out tomato plants in PA.

Like I said, as soon as I'm able, I will check out some of the smaller guys around here. Two of my local greenhouses have shut down in the past few years so I have to travel further afield.
