I've never been in the middle of summer, so I'd be interested to see what they have then. Most of their labeled plants seemed to be spring ephemerals. I went just the other day, and the lady slippers were starting to bloom, which was such a treat!

This seems to be a real must have it on my list of a garden. <br /><br />We have pink, and also white Claytonia growing here, it's been a early and very hot spring, so they are finished up quickly. Right now it's the Dame's rocket, and sadly the Hoary Cress which is taking over.<br /><br />I just looked up and saw Joy's comment...LOL. If you ever get to her blog, go and look at what she has planted in her garden...now that's a collector.<br /><br />JenRURAL https://www.blogger.com/profile/11871803235521431504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8770960028868336157.post-77972141269833935342015-05-22T21:51:22.664-04:002015-05-22T21:51:22.664-04:00Oh wow.

I have not found the perfect spot for them yet but I am not giving up ... and WOW ! on the double flowered one .. I would love to have that one ... we never stop wanting plants do we ?<br />I hope one day to be able to sit back and just admire my gardens .. but I always find something to work on .. it just never stops on that front either LOL<br />JoyCanadianGardenJoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18130452541076704075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8770960028868336157.post-87048237716773219222015-05-20T22:54:00.873-04:002015-05-20T22:54:00.873-04:00Aren't they so cute?
