I ordered from Wayside for more than 10 years and finally got so disgusted
with their mislabeled plants and out of stock notes on the packing list
that I decided to enjoy their highly colored photos and find other
sources....yes, they will refund or replace, but that gets very old very
quickly as you lose an entire season...
As noted by Don, there are *many* very fine nurseries out there...and many
online...who have the same plants- and some even better plants than Wayside
lists - at much more reasonable prices... after all, someone has to pay for
that "free" glossy colored catalog!
Check out those Don mentioned...and (bit of horn blowing here), check out
the series of articles I did this spring on more than 10 on and off-line
nurseries...all very reputable and of high quality (including some Don
mentioned)...here's the URL to the first in the series, just hit the "next
article" link to move on...

and don't forget Collector's Nursery and Niche Gardens....nurseries I wrote
about a year ago...both excellent...
