I love ferns, too, but having lost a lot of shade they've been having a tough 
time. All coming back beautifully now with this cold spring we're having.

Do you not grow ferns?  I will never have enough!  Babies coming up but still 
more I need!  Well, need different species.  Lots coming up with forked tips. 
 They make me happy!

This weekend there was a large plant sale by our farmer's market.  The 
Champaign-Urbana Herb Society, Grand Prairie Friends, and smaller vendors 
were all there.  I picked up a few things:

   5 Dodecatheon meadia (Grand Prairie Friends, $4.00, qt)*
   1 Parthenium integrifolium (Grand Prairie Friends, $4.00, qt)*
   l Ceanothus americanus (Grand Prairie Friends, $4.00, qt)*
   1 Campanula americana (Grand Prairie Friends, $4.00, qt)
   1 Pycnanthemum virginianum (Grand Prairie Friends, $4.00, qt)
   1 Symplocarpus foetidus (Grand Prairie Friends, $4.00, qt)

   2 Trillium recurvatum (Plant sale, $5.00, qt)**
   2 Uvularia grandiflora (Plant sale, $5.00, qt)**
   1 Mertensia virginica (Plant sale, $5.00, qt)**
   1 Geranium maculatum (Plant sale, $5.00, qt)**

   1 Calamintha grandiflora 'Variegata' (C-U Herb Society, $3.00, qt)**
   1 Satureja montana (C-U Herb Society, $3.00, qt)*
   1 Mentha x piperita 'Candy Mint' (C-U Herb Society, $3.00, qt)*
   1 Thymus pulegioides 'Foxley' (C-U Herb Society, $3.00, qt)

And then I was gifted these by my wife after she stopped by a local nursery:

   1 Hosta 'Lakeside Banana Bay' 
   1 Hosta 'Orange Marmalade' *
   1 Hosta 'Fire Island' **
   1 Echinacea 'Sombrero Salsa Red' 
   1 Geum 'Blazing Sunset' *
   1 Lysimachia punctata 'Golden Alexander' 

Now that the weather's warming up, maybe I can get planting!
