Dennis,

Your are right. I found Joe Pye Weed's Garden's 2008 catalog near the top of a pile by my bed. According to Jan & Marty, "SAM'S MINI ... Collected by Sam Norris in Olive Hill, Kentucky"

He's in Olive Hill, KY. It's two hours east of Louisville, right of
I-64. And actually I started off my day yesterday visiting Dropseed
Nursery just outside of Louisville in Goshen, KY. :-) I was amazed at
all the TBs lining the roadsides in Goshen, I bet they are spectacular
in bloom next month.

One of the plants Ken & I discussed was Sam's Mini. He didn't know much
about it, but somehow, somewhere, I thought I had heard that Sam's Mini
was collected in Olive Hill, perhaps by Sam Norris. But Ken didn't
know anything about it, which I thought was strange since Olive Hill is
such a small community. So maybe all my info was wrong? Does anyone
here know the scoop on Sam's Mini ?
