2 Gallon Double Wall Fount

Hello and welcome to BYC from Ohio!

I just got some Silver Penciled Rocks.....wish I knew where you could get the Partridge Rocks, but I have no idea. Maybe google it and you might find some....

Take care and glad you joined,

Sharon

Proud owner of some nice show quality Buckeyes and Silver Penciled Plymouth Rocks. I love gardening and being outdoors. I'm lucky to have a great family, and two cute dogs. I live out in the country on six wooded acres and it's just paradise! (Except the mortgage payment and bills, of course)
