Robert,
The February 98 issue of Horticulture has a section called The Ornamental
Outlook on page 34. It lists hot new plants for the coming season.
Heronswood Nursery carries Aconitum episcopale which is a climber from
Sichaun Province in China. You knew that, though. It says, "Its twining,
herbaceous stems grow 15 to 20 feet tall in one season, producing large,
deeply cleft leaves and clusters of violet-blue, hooded blossoms in late
summer and early fall. This bold perennial vine is hardy from Zones 4 to 9!
How bout that?
Ginny
