I went to forest farm web sites. I saw many kinds of Osmanthus. But it does not lists
Osmanthus Fragrans "Fudingzhu" from China.
I growed up in the soutth part of china. I remember there there are tons of Osmanthus Fragrans "Fudingzhu" . people use the flowers with Rice to make osmanthus sweet wines and all kinds of deserts. So delicious!!!!!!!!!!!
I would also like to make this kind of wine. SO I may need exactly Osmanthus Fragrans "Fudingzhu".

any idea?


Thanks

Osmanthus fragrans "Fudingzhu" is also known as Nanjing's Beauty: http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/176264/

I've never ordered from here and don't know anything about them but when I googled this nursery came up as selling this plant: http://www.brighterblooms.com/product/fragrant-tea-olive.html

I know I won't take the chance on ordering anything from them! Sounds like they don't know the meaning of good customer service!

I hope you find a source for this lovely plant ... I bet the fragrance is amazing!
