I got the impression that Chris would be doing mailorder of special
plants rather than growing for landscapers. I didn't think he'd plant to
carry Dianthus 'Firewitch'. Some of the newer toadlilies available are
to die for and I think those kind of collectors might be his target
group.

Chris, that is dependent upon your marketing audience.   Stock heavily with
those plants that are landscaping staples in your area.   Those are the plants
that many landscapers use in drifts. Also,   add a volume of perennial of the
year, if you can.   Better to start low and wish you had more than to be stuck
with plants.
