They look beautiful, but unfortunately I've learned the hard way that the deer like them even more than I do. 


Heck, with the snow and bitter temperatures last week they were even chomping on the holly bush outside my front door.

I've had poor experiences with QVC plants from Roberta's and Phillip Watson so I don't order them anymore.  I get all of my annual baskets and planters from a local greenhouse.

Easy pass. I don't garden and it's to hot in Arizona for that stuff to last very long. It just dies. If I want to plant something I'll just go across the street to Lowe's and get my plants there cheaper. They have stuff for our hot weather.

I never purchased plants from QVC. Has anyone ever gotten healthy, beautiful plants from them? Once I bought tomato plants from Jung Seed Company. They were so sickly & leggy. I tried planting them anyway & they all died right away. I can get beautiful plants from our local garden centers & Ace Hardware, for less than what QVC is charging. I just don't see the need to take a chance with their plants.

DH does the gardening but not as much these days since we downsized to a townhouse.

We are allowed to have some flowers planted in front of our units though so he still does it on a smaller scale.  Once when we were in our home I ordered from Cottage Farms when Philip was the vendor and it was not a pleasant experience.  They did replace the plant the following season and that died too so that was the end of that.........DH purchases his plants at a local garden center.

 

Wonder why Carolyn Gracie isn't on the schedule today with Girl Next Door or whatever it was??

I love plants and live in an area that has several garden centers. That's one thing I look forward to in the spring, going and picking them out. That way I know what I'm getting 🌷🌹🌼🏵️🌸

I got these SunPatiens the last time that Phillip Watson had them as the TSV. They were the slowest growing flowers I've ever had. I was expecting big mounds and got nothing. I'm guessing that you have you fertilize them more than normal.
