    'The Natural Gardener' on W. !0th, near UBC - he's always got'em 'in season' & you can pre-order when you know you'll need them in the future.

    If these shrubs are beneath low-branching conifers, building overhangs or the like transplanting them out away from these could help quite a bit. Do it when the top growth is firm, not when there is a bunch of succulent new shoot growth - as there is liable to be now.
