Many years ago, I came to the realization that it makes more sense to ask a specialist about something than just someone at random.  I found that most people wouldn’t tell you if they didn’t have the answer and they would rather just make something up than tell the truth that they don’t know.

The experience that taught me this was when I went to buy some plants for my yard: I wanted to know more about lantana care before I bought some.  The store clerk told me that they were just like any other plant and that I shouldn’t have any problems figuring it out.

Boy was he wrong!

Needless to say, all the plants died and so did my landscaping design ideas that I had in my head.  Now, if I want to know more about landscaping designs and plants, I make sure to take advantage of the excellent customer service at the greenhouse - they know what they are talking about.
