Q. Where can I find some of the new plants? I am
especially interested in the coneflowers like green envy, mac &
cheese and tomato soup.
A. Any Landscape Ontario member garden centre would be happy to sell you the plants you are looking for.
The problem with brand new plant varieties is they take a year or two
to become widely available in the marketplace. Demand is so high for the
new varieties, that they are quickly bought-up.
On the Landscape Ontario website Green for Life, click on Find a Professional.
Choose Garden Centre from the drop-down menu and hit Search, using your location.
You will then be prompted to enter your postal code to find a list of
plant retailers, listed by the closest distance to your postal code. The
search results include phone numbers, so it will require a few phone
calls to see which garden centre has the specific plants in stock that you are looking for, or if they can order them in for you.
