Online shopping
 

Since the web changes everyday, I thought I should ask this question again,
even though I did a google search....
For those buying plants online, where have you gone from shrubs, etc.
Looking for recs, and those to avoid.
Thanks for your time.

Check out http://davesgarden.com/gwd/

That's the "Garden Watchdog's Guide to Gardening by Mail."

Unless you are looking for tiny shrubs in 4 inch pots, I can't see buying
them online. The shipping charge for a decent sized shrub in a three or
five gallon container would be more than the plant is worth in most cases.
I've not had great luck buying bare root plants by mail.

If you are looking for perennials, I would recommend Bluestone Perennials.
There are lots of specialty places for things like peonies (Songsparrow
Nursery) and daylilies.

Take a nap Travis!

X-No-Archive:yes

Haven't bought any shrubs online, but I can recommend QVC for
yard/garden equipment. For example, I have a really nice little red
wagon that I bought from them:)

i just started a website for my nursery. i collect and grow all kinds
of oddball type plants. i get a genus i like and start collecting
every cultivar and species for my gardens. then i evaluate them for
hardiness and other things. if they pass the test of survival in my
gardens, then i propagate them and grow them on. the problem is, i
have all these plants and haven't found a decent way to market them.
most people in my area buy the usual yew, azalea, rhodie, blah, blah,
blah stuff. i like to find stuff nobody else has. my problem is that
i'm an investment and return kind of guy. i like to share my knowledge
and love of collection too.
