We have a line of plants!
Be a real gardener! Seek plants that need to be in the ground for a while before you really love them.
Then you have them forever-- and can even share!

Tough, time tested, soul-satisfying perennials.
Of course they work well with crinum lilies!

I despise un-recyclable branded plant pots and silly giant plastic tags. All that "gardening stuff" going to the landfill. We have to care! Don't buy that stuff!
Our nurseries use plain old black plastic pots that can be used over and over.
Jenks' Plantsman plants have two small tags.
1. Plant i.d. tag
2. An informative website tag. When you get home, download my original, geared to locals essays and pictures to get to know your plants.
