    For some of us who love plants but are on a budget and find it hard to tell our spouses how we spent the gas or food money on say a Tacca integrifolia. (Which by the way I really want one). Here are 2 sites I’ve gone to too help ease the craving for something new.

    http://www.arbordayfoundation.org/

    If you really like trees for a $10.00 6 months membership you will receive 10 trees according to your zip code area. Downside you don’t get much choice in trees. But hey it’s $10.00 and goes to a good cause.

    I ordered the Pink Crabapples it does take a while to get your order but they just charged for the shipping and handling. Remember free. On this I was satisfied with what I got.

    Both sites ship bare root so if you think that a glamorous tree is going to show up you will be disappointed. I received my in dormancy so they looked like sad sticks. But once potted up they sprung to life.
