Landscaping on a Small Budget

Hooray! Hooray! It's the first of May. We had to make a trip to town so we decided to check out a few garden centers while in the area. We usually avoid the big box stores but we were curious to see what they had available to compare quality and prices. Wow! We were impressed with the quality and selection at both Walmart and Lowe's garden centers. They carry many of the same brands and products found at nurseries including Monrovia Proven Winners at a fraction of the price.

​We spent $81.64 at  the Walmart garden center on bargains for our own beds. 27 perennials total.
  - 6 Cora Belle
  - 5 Peony
  - 2 Bleeding Heart
  - 2 Clematis
  - 12 Hosta​
​The Cora Belles are in small pots. The rest of our purchase was bare root stock.
