Default Home Depot trees

Hi there,

For the first time in my life I am buying trees, specifically fruit
and probably citrus.

Is Home Depot any good for this? There are a number of terrific
nurseries around here but it is a matter of time not money, if there
is even a difference. I am not sure. I was kind of caught by surprise
here.


What do you all say?

Take care,
Julie in SFBA



Truthfully, I don't trust either. Half my garden was destroyed this
year from the "Bonnie Blight" incident, and nearly all carried that
brand. Beware of mislabeled plants. I might prefer the store with
the best reputation/guarantee, maybe the cleanest-looking greenhouse.
Pick your poison.
