Love that place too! Much friendlier pricing. When I was pregnant with DD I was on 5 months complete bedrest, mid Feb to June in the hospital "upside down" with my head lower than my abdomen, even during meals. At 32 weeks I got to go home, and at 34 weeks my doctor told me to start walking again so I could get some strength back. I asked if there were any restrictions, and he said no because he thinks it would be impossible for me to walk any further than my mailbox. Well, those 2 weeks at home, I was lying in bed, looking out my window and all I could see were all my Terra Cotta pots on the deck with last years dead plants in them. The first thing I did was have a friend drive me to Flower World. We were not able to find close parking, and by the time I got in the building, I was so dizzy, nautious and wobbly , and the pressure from the babay - I thought all the stitches were going to pop off and she'd be born right there! I needed to sit down on the first chair I saw. I felt so bad, I had to ask and old man with an oxygen tank to move because I seriously believed I was going to collapse. Then my friend brought the car to the front, I went back home to bed, and did not even buy anyhting! DD was born 5 weeks early, on the 4th of July (also my wedding anniversary so DH could remember!). By that time the 2 for 1 sale was going on at Molbaks, and I finally got to replace all those dead blooms!
Now THAT is a dedicated gardener. I bet you relive it each time you walk in the doors. So happy that story has a happy ending. A wheel chair woulda been a nice help.
Just hearing your story and thinking about it makes me want to start gardening again. I can almost smell Flower World . I guess I better get the young lady's yard fenced pretty soon or they will unplant everything I plant. They live in the greenhouse and so I won't be starting any seeds this year.
Man do I ever need a ranch hand.
