Just did an on-air check for today ... 

Living in a high-rise apartment in NYC - absolutely no interest in gardening.

QVC2 has one style show later today - but I won't be home at that time.

Bye!

I love the garden shows. I don't buy much anymore, but I still enjoy them.

I bought some plants a few years ago from QVC. Cared for them like I was supposed to, but they did not do well. I only go to local garden stores now.

I didn't realize you live in NYC.  I'm always fascinated with the city, and I've only been there a few times.

I wonder what's the one style show on Q2 today?

In the Kitchen With Mary?

I see nothing else.

I have zero interest in gardening.  We put a lot of herbs in pots on the patio, some hibiscus in pots and that's it.  We have a low maintenance landscape and that's it.

We used to love having extensive flower beds and at this stage of life are glad we don't.  If we did, I would buy plants locally.

Thru the years, I've had NO luck with Cottage Farms. 

Much better luck with Roberta's.

But each year, the amount you get in plants,  in addition to the amt of $$ increase makes is not doable!   Nearly doubles in shrinkage in plants offered,   plus,  increases in price, both at the same time, each year!

None for me.  To me, it feels like a double sucker punch.

I stopped buying plants from QVC a long time ago. Waste of money. 
I like looking at all of the garden decor they offer.

Gardening doesn't interest me.  I seem to kill every plant I touch.

I feel the same way.  It's a lot of work to maintain flower beds, etc.  As long as the landscaping is neat and trim I have no desire to plant a vegetable garden or lots of flowers.  I do add some flowers that I have gotten from a local nursery in some pots on the front porch and steps.

I just have to remember to get flowers that the deer don't like.
