It is time to start haunting the fall sales - I love looking for bargains!
Oh yeah. I confess I just came home with a few myself including:
Hosta - 'Patriot', 'Tatoo', 'On Stage', 'Cherry Berry' and H. plantaginea (I had never grown this fragrant hosta before but it is lovely)
Some unnamed but 'blue' Hellebore (we'll see)
Tricyrtis 'Samurai'
Heuchera 'Amber Waves'
Polemonium 'Snow and Sapphire' - the new variegated one
Lonicera 'Harlequin' and L. japonica 'aureomarginata' - not sure of either's hardiness but hope springs eternal
Hibiscus 'Fantasia' 'Kopper King' and an unnamed orphan
A few other odds and ends like some new fall asters and golden hop plant (to cover the herb garden fence).

Tucked these into a corner of the garden and am getting set to redo a few beds at the front of the house this week. Out comes the shovel, out goes the old and in with the new. :-)

The scary part is that I have another whole month in which to collect new plants and an entire new garden area in which to put them.
