    New to coastal (warm climate) gardening -everything's different! My old Prairie nursery just informed me that they've had a crop failure for the 20 Mugo Pine seedlings I've had on order since Jan! Any suggestions for a different mail-order source, or at last resort, seeds?
    Thanks!

    A very common item. No outdoor plant vendors near you?

    Piroche was said to have gone out of business a few years ago.

    Really? Strange that the website is still up.

    Note web page copyrights and other dates associated with their online materials. I have seen nothing recent.

    There were online job postings for Piroche as recent as this month. I wonder if it went out of business but was then resurrected.

    Getting back on topic...after rereading the posting the OP may be more interested in seedlings than mature plants:

    Well if they're hiring they must be firing (in operation).
