RE: Questions...nursery, ornamec, and lenten rose


Bonnie, I can respond to two of your questions.  Plant Delights is a
delight.  I order from them regularly and have never had a bad
experience.   And their catalogues are a hoot.  I also grow Helleborus
in dry shade and, although, I've only had them in about a year they
appear to be doing just fine.

I have three questions for the experts:
    * What is your experience with Plant Delights Nursery, Raleigh, NC?
I 
received a very interesting catalog yesterday...since they are located
in 
my general region, I was thinking that many of their plants might work
well 
for me.
    * Atlanta Journal, Home & Garden, January 2, 2003, Weekend Gardener,

advice by Walter Reeves, says that Ornamec can effectively remove
bermuda 
grass and is found in Ortho Grass-B-Gon for Landscapes.  Is this product

fairly safe to use?  Is the chemical long-lasting?
    * Same column indicated that Helleborus orientalis will work in dry 
shade under oak with summer watering.  I have dry shade with oaks in the

back of my home, lake side.  I would love to try this but hope they
would 
survive in all but prolonged drought.  Experience? Thoughts Thanks for
your help, Bonnie 6+ ETN
