Goodbye Florence

Thank goodness Florence is finally heading away from our area. Thankfully, we dodged the worst of the storm, since the prediction models were dreadfully off target as late as 24-48 hours prior to landfall, when they showed the eye of the hurricane headed directly toward PDN/JLBG. Thankfully for us, Florence headed three hours south, passing instead over its namesake, Florence, SC. Top winds here were only 27 mph, with only 5″ of rain. Our thoughts go out to our friends in the actual storm track, who are coping with both wind and water damage. We’re on track to dry out by Friday, as we resume our final Open Nursery and Garden weekend for 2018…now scheduled for Sept. 21,22 (8-5) and Sept 23 (1-5)…see you soon and thanks for all the notes of concern!

  1. Tony,
    I am so pleased that you missed the brunt of the storm. As I live in Houston, floods are a recent memory. Although our home didn’t flood in Harvey, many of our friends and neighbors did.

    I enjoyed your talks when you visited here a couple (?) or years ago and the plants I have ordered in the past.
    Best Wishes
    Ken
