Re: Campsis radicans Grandiflora ??


Good Day to all of you who belong to the "Dirty Hands Club" --
Or is "Sore Knees Club?"
Or "Broken Back/Bank Club?"
Oh, well ...
I (and a friend) are looking for Campsis radicans Grandiflora.
Early last spring, someone suggested 2 places to look.
One was Wayside Gardens.
But I don't remember what was the other place.
I was new to the Net and lost the post.
I've tried to do searches using:  backyardgadener.com/plant.html
and some other things with no luck.
I must not have asked this list b/c I searched the Archives.

Do any of you know of this particular vine and have any ideas where we could 
find a couple??  

"Madame Galen" and "Flava" and "Bignonia" are everywhere but this 
"Old-fashioned" cultivar seems to be nearly lost.  My friends grandmother 
used to have one.  The uniqueness of this one that the flowers are so large 
the Hummingbird has to put his whole head inside the flower to get to the 
nectar.

TIA and Best Wishes to you all --
