 rareplants.com offers them too.

===>Sorry, Duncan.  I did not mean to imply that these prices were out of 
line for those plants.  I've read that some of these hybrids can cost 
thousands of dollars in Japan.  And they're gorgeous plants.  "Expensive" is 
relative, isn't it?  Expensive to me just means a LOT of money, NOT "more 
money than it's worth."  Many one-of-a-kind but quite pricey items are well 
worth their high price tags, and perhaps even bargains.  Just out of my 
budget.  I hope I'm forgiven.
 
 <<Thimblefarms will be offering more soon... so please
 stay tuned.  You should look at the cost for
 Meconopsis... very cheap to me. >>

===Would that I could grow Meconopsis in my climate.  I also read with 
interest the information about double trilliums which I also lust for, and 
also not budget-priced.  I'm incredibly impressed with the Thimble Farms list 
and have printed out the sections for plants I collect, including the 
trilliums, corydalis, tricyrtis, erythroniums, an on......  And now have to 
narrow down to what I can afford.  Thank you for making the list aware of 
this gem of a nursery.
