Really? this is news to me. I'm out in Los Angeles and i wasn't even
able to find VFTs (much less the other cp varieties) at my area Home
Depot... what gives? I know we are now coming out of dormancy and over
the next several weeks cps will be turning up at local nurseries and the
larger chain hardware/garden warehouses, but in los angeles, at least,
I've come up empty so far. Anyone out there know were i can turn?
Thanks in advance for any assistance...
