Comments regarding White Flower Farm

I have a few of White Flower Farm's catalogs, and I do value them for their reference quality and nice photographs. But their plants and garden information are distinctively East Coast in character. I would very much enjoy growing a number of plants they list, but no longer attempt such folly as they are definitely inappropriate for my arid western climate (as would many of the plants I cherish in my garden be inappropriate for yours).Please, let us not forget those 'less fortunate' souls who garden elsewhere! North America is a big place, and I do not expect my garden to look like yours any more that I expect your to look like mine.This reminds me of the search for a "North American gardening style". I can think of nothing more ridiculous to search for - as if it could ever be defined for a continent like ours - or that you'd want to try! This has always been a way to 'one up' the 'English style'. Well, England is a relatively small place, and even then it contains diversity more than we imagine.
