Hi George,
I REALLY like this plant and would love to get a hold of some...having trouble locating it here in VA at local nurseries. Any suggestions on where I can try? Thanks!
It is available from Monrovia. Check http://www.monrovia.com/dealer.nsf/ZipDealers for a retailer near you. I found it listed at:
http://www.green-leaf-ent.com/cgi-shl/$webdbc.exe/company/Green_Leaf/select/&/greenleaf/greenleaf2.htx?d_Genus=LITHODORA
Most sources seem to be out here on the West Coast. Good luck
I found mine @ Lowe's (monrovia). www.lowes.com/plants L3085
I like your unusual color! Mine is blue/purple. Wonder if it is the pH that makes same species different colors?

elaine, you probably have a different cultivar.
