Stokes 2010 wish list

22nd November, 2009 - Posted by shawn - No Comments

Well, finally had a few minutes to peruse the Stokes catalog.  I have to admit that this was not nearly as fun as Pinetree or Seed Savers – lots of things I’ve seen before.

I did like a few things from their “Flowers of Merit” section on page 2, but I wish they’d have put the ordering info here instead of later in the book:

  • Mammoth Glamorama White Pansy $2.75 (page 75)
  • Cora Cascade Cherry Vinca $2.95 (page 85)
  • Starlight Rose Zinnia $3.25 (page 87)

Then there were the wide selection of impatiens.  My father loves impatiens and with so many colors to choose from on pages 68-69 he’s bound to find a few he likes.  Prices are all over the place for these.

I want everything on the viola page (76) and the marigold pages (71-73.)

I find Stokes prices to be on the high side so I doubt they will get much of my business.
