|reticulata for naturalizing?
Yes! Van Engelen (see my web page for address and other info.). I can't
recommend I. danfordiae for naturalizing, because it seldom blooms well
after the first year. I've heard that this problem can be partially
corrected by planting them deeper, but I haven't tried it. Still, I'd
recommend you stick with the reticulata types for naturalizing. 'Harmony'
is one of my personal favorites.
