As a delayed Mother's Day gift, Sarah and Winnie and the dogs took me plant shopping at the huge nursery north of Cincinnati.
II'm easily impressed - they had complementary icy bottles of cold water.
It's the kind of place where customers stroll around just looking at plants of all kinds, knowledgable employees stroll around asking if they can help, and dog biscuits appear out of employee smock pockets.
I picked out this red cone flower and a bluebeard cryopteris. I really wanted a milkweek plant but those were very picked over. I guess that other people want a zoo certified pollenator garden.
Luckily, Winnie located a smaller nursery on the way to the brewery. That nursery had lots of pollinator plants, inclluding a selection of milkweed - I may have to go back.
