Why I love nursery tours

I learned alot over the past 2 days of nursery tours in 90 degree temps. We walked through greenhouses with fog makers in them, and we're in Ohio. Where the humidity is already high.

We looked in hot buildings to understand nutrient injecting hydraulic tubes for irrigation.

We drove in dusty pickups through several hundred acre fields with the windows closed so the pond water wouldn't sprinkle into the windows.

We walked through monstrous dark holding barns where I almost slipped and fell into something slimy.

But in all of that, we did get to see these cuties:


And these which will turn pink soon, and aptly named, Pink Diamonds.

And acres of these, all in full bloom, all blooming for just a few workers at this company. I'm glad I could walk through just a few rows of them.
