Flowers for Mother's Day are a very traditional gift, indeed, and we'd like to recommend a slightly different twist on the theme this week. Why give that special "mom" in your life a dozen roses that will look great for a week, then slowly fall to pieces? That's not a gift to last!

Give her a live rose bush! A healthy rose can produce thousands of roses over the plant's lifespan, and our roses start at $24.99.

That's hard to beat, in our opinion. Send that special lady in your life a rose for Mother's Day - you'll be glad you did.

We also have beautiful blooming hydrangeas - including the popular re-blooming Blushing Bride and Endless Summer varieties, which also make a great gift.

Covington's is pleased to announce our Super Shrub Sale! We have excellent plants of many of our most popular varieties on sale, now through much of the Spring.

"Clara" Indian hawthorn	Loropetalum	Japanese boxwood
Carissa holly	Dwarf Burford holly	"Rosy Glow" barberry

We also have: Wintergreen boxwood, Dwarf Yaupon holly, "Crimson Pygmy" barberry, and Giant Liriope.

All of these are good looking, in 3-gallon containers, and are on sale for $14.99 each! But we do this often, so this isn't the "Super" part yet.

If you buy 10 or more of any one of these varieties of shrub, we're selling them for only $10.00 each!

The best part of all - there's absolutely No Limit. Visit Covington's Half-Price Houses for a great deal this week!

It's the beginning of May, and there's a lot of beautiful things to see around the Metroplex right now. Show us your unique, beautiful, and different!

Covington's is changing our Thursday hours for the season. To make it easier for folks to shop after work, Covington's will be open until 7:00 PM, every Thursday, all spring long.

If you just haven't had the time to make it out during the week, this should help!

We have an exciting new product at Covington's, freshly arrived this week! Covington's Special starts with a proven formulation of 12-6-6 fertilizer to which we added an outstanding micronutrient package. It's everything we recommend in a tree and shrub fertilizer for the area.

Try it sometime soon, or our Covington's Pro-Choice premium lawn fertilizer. We think you'll agree - Covington's brand fertilizers are, simply, some of the best you'll ever use in North Texas.

Covington's has rolled out a new feature on our website! Now, it's possible to check availability of all of our plant material online, before you come to the store. Our general availability can be read online, updated several times a week, as well as a special "Half Price" section with beautiful plants at a great price. 

We've already had a lot of positive responses from our customers on this new feature, so this week, we recommend you give it a try yourself! It's convenient, there's no waiting time - unless you need a cup of coffee this morning, at which point our web page will patiently wait for you to get back to the desk! - and the inventory listing is updated four to five times a week. The inventory list has pricing and container sizes listed alphabetically by plant type.

Check the Covington's home page for the frequently updated links.

As you, our regular readers, know, the Webletter we send out weekly is filled with helpful information about planting in North Texas, as well as our latest specials. But if you have a friend who's enthusiastic about having a beautiful yard and seeing the best of the new material as soon as it arrives, recommend our Webletter to them!

They'll see that it's also filled with pictures taken here at the nursery, usually in the same week the article is published, of the newest trees, shrubs, and flowers as they come in. Why settle for generalized pictures of a common shrub when you can see the very plants we have available, right now?
