Judi, That's how I felt when I went to our FM after Willow posted her lovely hellebores... and all they had was NOTHING but potted daffodills. Empty.... Nada.... I was major bummed! At least they have finally started to get some plants in now.

Kymmco, Willow is right.... there are some very good enablers here! Sounds like you came home with some wonderful things.

I was cleaning my back pond area and discovered that the hechura that I planted there is Snow Angel, and it is doing wonderfully. My trick? Go into finding a location for it not realizing how fussy it is (not knowing much about the species at all as a matter of fact), and then plant it in a spot where you really shouldn't plant a heuchura (like a wet pond edge). Voila.... It has been there for four years, and although it is looking a bit scrappy right now, it should be lovely in a month or so. I am afraid now that I know that it usually doesn't do that well, it will start to melt just to spite me.
