This is a response from a different Nancy:
I recommend Rich's Foxwillow Pines Nursery in Woodstock, IL. Phone
815/338-7442 with a web page and an email address of coniflora@aol.com. I hear
nothing but good things about it and plan to visit this spring. The climate
is just about the same as your's probably even colder.
Good luck!
