Awesome plants as always Weerobin! :) That little Aristolochia is really unique! I'll have to take a picture of our clump of Trachystemon orientalis. It's been planted for about 4 years and it's an aggressive spreader! It's a perfect groundcover for the area where we have it planted but probably not a plant most people would want in a "tame" garden! LOL I've been so busy I haven't taken any pictures this spring but I'll have to get a few of the "unusual" plants here and post them soon. The Disporum 'Night Heron' popped out of the ground early this year and the stalks are HUGE!

David, we were in Ontario a few years back and came across a nice clump of Squaw Root. This was taken in just one spot but it was the largest colony I'd ever seen - popping up everywhere in an area which covered almost 100'!
