It's a fantastic nursery, a place where I used to spend a considerable portion of my disposable income back in the early days of being a home owner.

Now I just want to sell off the half of my lot that there's no house on, and convert the other half to the kind of mow-blow-and-go yard that I never have to think about.

Lovely! It wouldn't be fair to plants to take them home on a bicycle, anyway, even if you could fit them into your basket - they'd hate the wind.

I find the sign "sun perennial" interesting. Does it mean perennials which like being in the sun?

Yep, it's the most well-organized nursery you can imagine. Shade, sun, annuals, perennials, shrubs, trees, evergreens, herb starts, vegetable starts--it occupies most of a city block with all its sections, and it's a candy store for urban gardeners.

As to wind, you have a very elevated idea of the speed I can manage on a laden Dutch bike!

Plants are joy! I'm glad you had car-help to get some home.

They really are. As far as I've strayed from my avid-gardening days, I do still enjoy that moment where the bedding plants are in the pots or beds, the potting-soil mess has been hosed away, and the new arrivals are freshly watered.

And I can go change back into real clothes and sit drinking something cold while I admire them.
