RE: Leucosceptrum

You were right, Lil
	Lost Horizons sure did have some great goodies to drool over. Saw
some nice Actaea along with the Leucosceptrum Mountain Madness.
Unfortunately he no longer ships..and is located in Canada which complicates
shipping of plants into the US. I will keep an eye out elsewhere for the
name to pop up... sure did drool over the Actaea, though.

This is the description from  Lost Horizons Nursery - an amazing place that
you would love Gene! Down to earth and no airs at all. Started by a plant
loving landscaper who could never find unusual and interesting things. Not a
common name label in the place.

Doesn't the plant sound absolutely yummy! Did find a couple of pictures on
the
web.
