Actually, the pricing on the “bulk” isn’t bad and some of the “sized” ones are reasonable as well. The thing that gets me is the “3 weeks” regardless of whether you buy it off the roll or made to size.
Hadn’t thought of HF, which is funny as I get a stiffy whenever I see the catalog… 
Will have to take a look. The area along the fence gets sun all day long, so when the hottest part of the day comes around, when it gets in the 90’s or higher, just shrivels them up. I have taken to flooding the area in the mornings, even on the 80’s days and that seems to help a bit. being that most of the stuff is non-heat loving, makes it worse.
