| Does anyone know where to find Felco tools for sale in the Anniston area? They are the worlds best pruners, in my opinion.
We are buying a place with 12 acres in the Jacksonville area that is a virtual botanical garden, but it is going to need lots of pruning. Thanks in advance to any of you who may have the information I need. Happy to be in Alabama! Terry |

| You might be able to find them on line cheaper than locally. It seems the boutique type shops sell them and they are quite expensive, even at best price. |
|
| I also urge you to look on line, or in your best gardening catalogs. I agree that they are worth the search, but I've not found that many places stock Felco. I'll attach a link to my source for tools and supplies that I use for my business. I've found good service and good prices there. I also suggest that you look at the small pruning saws that Felco makes....what time (and energy) savers they are! Buy some leather gloves to go along with them, though. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Drool over THESE pruners!

| Thanks Rhizo for the link. I just ordered a pair and I thought the prices were incredible. I know I paid at least $20 more than their price last time I bought some and that was probably about five years ago. I'll be anxious to look at the rest of their products in their catalog. Terry |

| That's my 'wish book' ;-) |

| I think you will be pleased with the prices at www.frostproof.com. Several years ago when I was still an Ohio buckeye I decided to treat myself to a good pair of pruners and ordered the Felco #2 from frostproof. They arrived promptly and I have been oh so pleased with them (and wondering why I waited so long). I then ordered loppers and a small pruning saw - again both were A-1 decisions. I'm not affiliated with frostproof - just a happy customer. |

| Has anyone seen Micro-Tom plants for sale in the Birmingham area? Thanks much. Bill |
