We're celebrating St. George's Day at Gardenway* , ' ' ' The myth and the man 7 r’ When he was not engaged in ■r ; ■■■* * assisting Edward Ill's crusaders : J abroad, St. George roamed the >’ CCzf English countryside slaying dragons and rescuing maidens at > \ home: activities which are being ‘ tW f/ challenged increasingly by ; WX/7 thinking people today. It is 1 ( undisputed, however, that he was 'SH'W/ r . heavily into the garter business i and tbere are numerous cases /' documented which would substantiate purchases of garters "by Order of St. George". There i is 9 row ing support for the theory . \ that he travelled the countryside < I in the guise of itinerant r -4* ~ v) haberdasher while checking for the King on the observance of the ■ price freeze. it seems fitting then that we /r celebrate the Day by drawing to v your attention some items which •X ,X.. are English and some which are very resonable in price. St. George's leaf rake, in tough polypropylene, as illustrated $3,99. At $3.99 they're at* least $1 cheaper than the usual retail and tough enough for years of use. And most appropriate for the Day. The St. George family mottb is of course, "Honi soit qui mal y pense", (rake leaves, not muck) and relates to the time when the family was Royal Custodian of Epping forest, but that's anther story. Violet'Prince Henry'sounds as English as can be although the Prince does not readily come to mind as your typical shrinking Violet, our seedling grower describes them "Highly recommended minature Viola. Produces deep purple blooms profusely and continuously, come rain or shine, from early Spring to late Autumn. Ideel rockeries and edgings." $1.45 per pack of 10. Even with help from Prince John the yellow counterpart we could be short but there are plenty of Dream Pansies and Majestic \M Giants. You can be’.sure of a selection of flower seedlings H and vegetable plants at each Gardenway branch. A Not to mention English Lavender and Queen Victoria's Lobelia. The "English" lavender was adopted in Elizabethan times from Mediterranean varieties and widely used for bathing and toiletries. Our variety is something special as you will see. Large plants in flower $4.50. Queen Victoria's Lobelia-is from Mexico, grows % m high and produces crimson spikes of Savia-like flowers every year. We did say not to mention because we have a few dozens only at each branch. $1.99. ®iGardenway open 7 days Open 9 a.m. - 5.30 p.m. for personal shoppers. Visa and Bankcard facilities.
