Re: Heronswood
Most catalogues with an inventory like Heronswood's do not have photos or, if
any, have photos of a few select plants. That would be a daunting task, indeed!
Would be best to invest in a good reference book or two (or three) which would
also include the cultural info for the plants. Many of us have fallen prey to
the lure of an enticing photo only to find out that the plant won't grow happily
in our gardens.
