For gardeners on the Internet, a Texas-based firm called Garden Escape is joining the ranks of others offering such services.
Garden Escape's wares range from advice on planning and design to a broad selection of premium plants, supplies and accessories.
Through Garden Escape's address on the Internet, consumers can order anything from perennials and roses to imported tools and hard goods at the touch of a finger. The program can suggest plants that attract butterflies or are especially fragrant, depending on user preference, or which hard-to-grow perennials will flourish in shade.
