Looking for product sources.

[parie]

Okay, please understand that I KNOW I"M BEHIND, in ordering this year. a little overwhelmed this past 6 months, to think about christmas, but I am looking for sources for the following product
1) Evergreens, garlands, wreaths, and bulk greenery at good cost, with shipping that doesn't eat me alive
2) honeysuckle garland (dried)
3) magnolia bulk rate
4) outdoor sturdy FUN ribbon, not velveteen, i use the sinamay product alot for outdoors but looking for an alternative, customers always wanting me to do something different.
5) large plastic christmas balls, oversized, at least 10"

any ideas, would appreciate.
already have price info from Mayesh, Special Events and Florabundance

Do you have a big lots down there? They have some awesome huge xmas balls - and you might as well say wholesale price.

as far as greens - we are not ordering any this year - we are getting a whole truck load of greens for $50 from the local tree farm. He trims back his trees and we go and load up as much as we can on a truck. I go through about 3-4 big truck loads
