Pup of the Week 

Oliver Dog

If you are looking for someone who enjoys long, relaxing walks, snuggling and hanging out with dogs - or even cats - Oliver is your guy! This two year old pure bred Cocker Spaniel is looking for a home with loving adult humans who don't mind taking him for rides in the car.  

  

You can read more about Oliver and how to adopt her click here!

 

The Bill Foundation does great work in helping pets find homes. We are proud to help in a small way by bringing you the Pup of the Week with each newsletter.

On The Move!
 

This is the time of year we live for; our version of Christmas Eve at the North Pole!  We rarely get a chance to sit down these days, so we will forego our usual article and just share a few photos of some plants we are shipping now.

 

Please note that some of our standard 4" plants are also available in 36 Cell Trays too.  These are great for landscape installations and also for growers looking for Starter Plugs to to bump up into Gallons.  See photos below.

 

Be sure to check our Availability Lists on the left.  Our Ivy crops are growing like rambunctious children and should probably be ready for shipping in the next 7-10 days.
