Free Plants

Campbell Rd. Nursery in Cary/Raleigh (intersection of Tryon and Jones-Franklin Roads) is having an after Labor Day giveaway of annuals (actually, most are tender perennials). I stopped by this afternoon to buy some broccoli, cabbage and cauliflower plants and went home with a car load of freebies. A lot of these plants can be overwintered if you have an area protected from freezing. I brought home several Angelonia, Coleous, Portulaca, Basil, Perilla, large leaf ee's and 5 or 6 Brugs that were all different colors. I also got a Hibiscus acetasella 'Haight Ashbury' in a 3-gal pot - so far I have been unsuccessful in overwintering one of these. By the way, their weekday hours are 9 - 5.
