new introductions


        I have started looking on Web sites for information about new plant
introductions that will be available for retail sale this coming spring.
        Evidentally, there has been a lot of recent work in hybridizing
hydrangeas, and several wonderful new ones are forthcoming, including one
called the Swan that is a hardy lacecap type but with the sterile florets
FIVE times the size of the standard so the petals droop down like swan's
wings. There was a picture of it on the wholesaler's site and it was a
beauty.
        Anybody else heard of new things to watch for?
