I don't know how up to date the plant listing is on the Merrifield Garden Center website, but it does list this plant. Give them a call and see if it is in stock. They tend to only stock larger specimens.

I haven't been to Behnke's this year (how's that for self control?), but they had a nice selection of amelanchiers last year. If you wait for their sales, you can get them for a good price too. (Behnkes is in Beltsville, but they have other locations too.)

Oh! Oh! Oh!

I bought an 'Autumn Brilliance' at Behnke's on Route 1 several months ago. It's about 15' tall and it cost me $89.00. I had been looking for one for a long time and stumbled upon this while looking for Sycamores ('London Plane tree' $69.00) and English Hawthorne 'Crimson Cloud' ($89.00!)

I was thrilled. :)

If you live closer to Indian Head/Ft Washington, try Denison's Nursery on 210 south of the Beltway. They sell to the public, but they aim for the commercial trade, so they often have dozens of individuals of the same tree/shrub. I got my Fringe Tree from them a few years back, and I got to pick through over a dozen individual trees, all well shaped. Prices will be comparable to Behnke's.

Thanks for the suggestions everyone. Cynthia, I just don't have your strength of will.

Going to Behnkes TODAY!!
