Does anyone have a catalog carrying this particular daisy. I have
googled
with zip results.

It's "Montauk", not "Montaug". Try the search again. I got over 900
results.




Strangely MA and NY consider both spelling "correct", though the K
ending
is
more common and on most maps. The other is a colonial hold over.

Since the "K" ending was the only one who turned up 900 results, I stuck
with that. I even found ONE who sells the suckers. I will order in the
early spring.
Many thanks ofr the spelling help.


When you're done with all this, get to Montauk for a few days. Gorgeous
off
season (before Memorial Day, after Labor Day). Makes the cape look like
Chuck E Cheese on a bad night full of little sugar-cranked monkeys. Try
www.royalatlantic.com.


I'd love to go there - I've heard it's lovely. I hate the Cape even in the
dead of winter. Since my parents and sister live there, guess where I get
to
be all too often.

It's cheap off season, too. The biggest problem with the place is that you
(usually) have to go through the rest of Long Island to get there, unless
you're coming from New England and can take a ferry over. That cuts off half
the filth.


Well Doug, it's hockey season and it's 5 rinks in 3 days a lot here. Oh the
joys of a travel player and the little house league player too.
