Sorry folks! Sometimes the universe conspires against us, and in the interest of prioritizing the health and happiness of our crew here at DRN, we're making the tough call to close at 1PM today. We will reopen regular hours next week Wednesday-Sunday 9am-5pm. We apologize for any inconvenience but we will see you next week!

"A super versatile native flowering shrub. Reaching just 3-5' tall, it's a dense column of glossy green foliage that's perfect for low hedges or screening. Low Scape Hedger grows well just about anywhere: in full sun or part shade, wet or dry soils, in hot climates or cold ones. Non-suckering; Can be pruned into a formal hedge or left to grow naturally." - Proven Winners
