Daisy's Garden Shop

do they sell tomato plants?

Maybe give them a call tomorrow to see. I am not sure. I will ask them and post when I see them...

My favorite garden shop people.

I called and they do have tomato and pepper plants:clap:

Yippee! Thanks for playing. :wave: I hope these guys get a lot of new business from SoWal! I just did a new logo for them... I attached it.. of course, they haven't seen it yet... let me know what you think. The white is a lil too white in this version... but I'll fix it...

Love It!:clap:

What are their business hours?

Cool logo! :clap:

I vote for a green stem, smaller space between garden and shop, smaller/cuter apostrophe, and either a different color petal or background so the flower pops!

Too bad they didn't let you take a crack at THE beach! 😀

eww, thanks! I like the suggestions!!!!

What are their business hours?

9-5, Tuesday - Saturday

Thanks 😀. I went over there the day of your original post and got: Thyme, salad burnet, oregano, dill, mint, stevia, 2 tomato plants which I will hang in a bucket, tarragon (yummy), parsley (because it makes a nice color contrast -I personally think it is useless for taste.), and a couple of other things that I can't recall now. Very friendly. Thank you for posting of them.

Nice herb selection! How do you hang your tomato plants in a bucket? That sounds kinda interesting.

Cut a 2in hole or so in the bottom of the bucket and thread the immature plant through it -oh also have a coffee filter covering the hole where the plant is poking through so the dirt won't fall out when added. Add the potting soil as you normally would and hang the bucket by its handle. The plant will grow to the sunshine from the underside and no wiring or added support needed (I hope).

I saw really good pics somewhere the other day. I am not using a lid on mine as I'll thread the plant through the bottom. I may wind up wishing for a lid though if my stuff falls out. I suppose it makes for less lifting while adding the soil. I want a cheeseburger.

while i have found these individuals to be very nice, i have had no luck in their followup. last year, they said they could order us a specific bush. they took our phone number, etc. and never called back. a similar situation happened the year before. i was truly disappointed because i liked them alot.

The native plant nursery I have worked at here in Texas would have a problem getting people called back in the spring because we would get sooo busy.

Our situation was that when we didn't have something that we sometimes carry or might get in at a future date, we would take the name and # of customer to call them if/when we got it in. I would always tell anyone leaving a "request" to be called to please also follow up themselves and call us back on Thursday afternoons or Fridays after weekly deliveries had come in. Thus between both of us if they were really wanting something, there was a better chance of getting it.

People would actually go shop behind our retail area, in the "stocking" area, and from sections of plants "on hold" for customers or landscape jobs and shop. All the signage in the world will not keep some from doing this.

Please realize for a nursery, especially in the busy season, good intentions may fall through the cracks. Just give them a call back and check. Help them out as I'm sure that is what they would want. ;-)

Great post. Thank you. People often do not follow up with me, and I do get irritated, but I think you made this argument very logical. I know some of us have digital remidners to follow up with folks, but with this line of business, I imagine Tom and Roger seldom sit in front of a computer---

I think these guys would love another chance. Also, they are not online, so they couldn't defend themselves from a negative post.

I'd judge them by their expertise and willingness to share. Thanks!

I said I would post the newsletter when I finished it, so here it is... I wanted to highlight the owners of Daisy's and you can see- I made the changes to the logo that were suggested in an earlier post...

The upside down collage will be folded right side up when mailed.
Also, there is this odd square within the logo when I publish to a pdf (it isn't there otherwise). I'll figure it out...

Thanks SS. I enjoyed taking a peek at that.

Me likely! Makes it pop more! :clap:
