Hi Sheila,
Thanks for the mail.
Yes, I can get Dryopteris Wallichiana - in England it has received an
award - "Royal Horticultural Society Award of Garden Merit", so it's a
good one to get. I've found a picture of it and it looks lovely. I'm
definitely adding it to my list. The other one you mention I can't find
in any of my books. But thank-you so much for your suggestions.
Any more thoughts please let me know.
Elaine.
