Isn't the catalog hysterical this time? Tony Avent is a hoot.
It really distresses me that someone had a bad experience with Plant
Delights. I have been going there for many years and have also received
plants through the mail from them. I have always been pleased with their
service. Tony Avent has helped me locate trees and shrubs that they do not
grow (but I saw in their display gardens). He really is an interesting
knowledgeable man. I am sure he would want to know if a customer was
unhappy.

And what a display catalog Plant Delights turns out! Timely too, as their
latest catalog features a movie theatre with marquee reading "The Full
Morty starring Bulbil Clinton as Amorphophallus "Morty" Konjac and
introducing Japonica Lewinsky as the intern princess Viagra, co-starring
Gennifer Flowers and Kathleen "Weeping" Willey." Sorry about this. I
think we've all O.D.-ed on this dreck, but it is timely. Margaret
