People from Wisconsin and Minnesota are nice

Just a random thought .... I just ordered some native wildflower and grass seed from two
nurseries one in Westfield Wisconsin and one in Winona, Minnesota and the people were
very nice.

BTW I am planting spring beauty, bloodroot, trout lily, bluebells, white trillium, heuchera richardsoni, and
bottle brush grass from seed and some ginger and lindera plants. I am making a forest floor ecosystem.

They have a great selection of native plants and seeds and the plants are always in good condition on arrival. Your forest floor will be beautiful.

The other nursery is the prairie nursery in Westfield Wisconsin. I am friends with the owner/president.

Although I am kind of an expert in native plants I have never installed many of those plants from seed and I am interested on how they will do. The seeds are going into some leaf compost under a hugh oak.
