Half Price Time
 

It's that time of the year folks. My nursery is selling vegetable garden
plants at half price. I'm sure they aren't the only ones. Got me a nice
habanero in a 4" pot for $1.25. Not bad for over priced Sonoma County.

Even Home Despot has some nice deals. Here, someone made a horrible mistake
and actually took good care of some of the plants. They've probably been
fired.

looking plants.

Gee, I hope you bought a wagon or two!

Our local nurseries are pretty much sold out. They're all
mom & pop businesses. We'd have to drive 100 miles to find
a big box store.

Why firing... it's smart to discount plants that will probably die if
not purchased... likely there's not enough growing season remaining to
produce peppers anyway.

I don't think discounted wagons are in the same catagory as discounted
late season annuals... the plants will bring zero revenue if unsold...
the wagon can be offered for sale next year, but $19.95 is probalby
all it's worth anyway and still some profit, the $59 was way inflated,
as are all seasonal goods at the onset of the season. There are lots
of deep discounts on summer goods in every catagory now; grills and
lawn mowers gotta go to make room for snow blowers. It won't be much
longer and all live nursery plants will be deeply discounted.
Perennials, shrubs, and trees can be heeled in over winter but not
annuals.

Fired for breaking with the Home Despot tradition of mistreating plants.
Most of their plants look awful right now, except for a few which seem to
have been overlooked for abuse.

Rochester's interesting. I'm in a narrow area along Lake Ontario, whose
planting season is about as long as in seaside NJ, CT and Long Island. I was
picking peppers in early November last year. 30 minutes south of here, they
get frost a month earlier and a month later. Probably more like your area.

Habanero is 8" to 10" tall. It is mid July and we often have heat in
October. No rain usually until Nov. For a buck twenty-five, I'll risk it.
