Some nurseries that can be relied upon to provide mature plants in most of
the genera they sell are Plant Delights, Walters Gardens, Klehm's, and
Forest Farm (if you choose the larger sizes available). Even Wayside will
provide a blooming-age plant in the varieties that take a long time to
mature, such as Trillium, Arisaema, and roses. Most of mine don't bloom
the first year they are planted, regardless of maturity, because by the
time the roots are established, the growing season is over.
