else<br>> around here is carrying. Only good part of this is their
entire stock<br>> has been reduced to 50% off...so needless to say I've
bought a lot of<br>> new plants recently. Here's the list, I'll try to
get pics when I can.<br>><br>><br>> Roses:<br>> 'The Fairy'--X 2<br>>
'Auguste Renoir'<br>> 'Sir Thomas Lipton'<br>> 'Mozart'<br>><br>>

possibly says 'benneschtii'?<br>><br>> an unidentified Thalictrum
