Would love the Kirengeshoma palmata but the ph is high here. And since
I can't pronounce it my wallet has probably more time to live. The book would
send me to debtors' prison.

Gonna buy the book and/or the plants? ;+)
I noticed a source for the Cardiandra in England somewhere.
Kirengeshoma palmata was easy enough to find in the past, though I didn't know
it was a Hydrangea. And I'm guessing I got my Deinanthe from Seneca
Hill. Strange how some plants can be so desirable, yet not to be
available.

Gene...just checked out the Cardiandra
alternifolia...zounds...gorgeous...is it a small plant? I recognize the
Hydrangea in it. What can you tell me about it? Thanks, Joanie

I am becoming more and more aware of hydrangea
relatives.... top on my list of performers is the quiet little
Platycrater arguta. Goes with anything and is a subtle charmer. Blooms
are like pearls over glossy rich-green long leaves. Just added
Cardindra alternifolia to the azalea area with Nicholas Hakonechloa
and Heartthrob violet.

showstoppers
So what showstoppers have you had in your gardens
so far? What's the plant (or combination) that left you in
awe of Nature and your abilities to cultivate her?
And I mean that in a good way, because otherwise mine would
have to be Bishop's gout. I wonder if I will *ever* be rid
of that plant. :) The only thing that seems to kill it is
Packera aurea, which is another one I'm fighting to
eradicate. Curse the Cincinnati Zoo and Botanic garden for
showing Packera to me in
flower!
