Hi Charles,

I have Hydrangea arborescens that I could divide and trade, just not sure if it is 'Annabelle' by name, as it was passed down from generation to generation etc. etc. Also many native ground covers. Which Yucca are you offering for trade? Is it all green or variegated? Do you have a trade list that you could email to me? So many questions... ;o)

Thanks, Lily

Gee, there are so many lithic objects of all sizes around Boston, it seems that sometimes we should consider using them for barrier islands around the coast. Sometimes you might find some rocks in a site of new development.
In CT you are near the Smithsonian of Kalmia. Run, don't walk to Broken Arrow Nursery and Richard Jaynes, Ph.D. I'v seen everything you mentioned except Cornus canadensis on many lists and in lots of retail places.
There is a nursery in Maine that might have the Cornus, but they only deal in Wholesale quantities. They might clue you in about where they have shipped things to. Also Dick Jaynes is very tuned into the nursery industry in CT and can help you if you can give him time to do everything else that must be done by early December.
