Re: Hellebores/ Fern Ursula's Red
Hello Diann.
See where someone sent you an address on Terra Nova where you could take a
look at the Athyrium nip. var. pictum "Ursula's Red".
One has to be careful when visiting that site... especially if you have a
password and are a nursery;-) Got myself into all kinds of goodies to grow on for
next spring inventory. The "Ursula's Red" fern is only one of the plants on their
way. I was tempted by your "Bradford Beauty", but passed for now. Also was tempted
by "Wildwood Twist". Perhaps next year... sigh... never enough room and money for
everything NOW.
And believe me... I do want everything yesterday....
