Forestfarm is, indeed a very good nursery, Anelle...I'll second you
anyday with them. Have ordered from them for many years; always
larger plants than I'd expected and arriving in good condition. A
lot of my garden has come from Forestfarm. They do have an
extraordinarily lovely list of woodies and a lot of perennials, etc.,
too.
