Dramatic Bergenia from legendary OR nurseryman Russell Graham and we have named it so in appreciation and to keep this clone distinct. One of the most frustrating plants in our garden, not for us but for pleading customers as we've never offered it. Deciduous leaves up to a rounded square foot and white-pink flowers.

Mark Weathington of the Raulston Arboretum at NCSU introduced this goody from Taiwan. Narrow blade leaves are maculated in white and the upright stems bear small pink flowers in mid to late summer. A very interesting new addition to the hardy Begonia palette as this has a different look than what one usually sees. Mulch if winter is wicked.

Yes indeed it is a hardy Begonia. Hardy if you plant it in the ground - it won't be happy with you if you let it freeze it in its pot. Good soil that retains moisture in shade to filtered light and everyone will be happy. Dormant in winter and coming back from tubers in early summer.

One of the really good Bletilla hybrids which develops very wide pleated leaves - wide for a Bletilla anyway - and tall spikes of pink flowers. Again, tall for a Bletilla but 30" is nothing to sneeze at especially when you get more flowers than the typical species. Easy and vigorous in Zone 6b, maybe lower.

A collection from Asia from an area rarely visited by westerners. This rhizomatous species has leaves variably marked in pale patterns topside and varying shades of red beneath. Upright stems to 10"-18" with pink flowers. Hardiness unknown yet but the mantra of "grow until you can split it then try outside mulching like heck for winter" applies. Thinking maybe mellower Zone 8b.

Large burnished red to maroon to olive-maroon leaves depending on leaf maturity and light intensity. The small pinkish red flowers are nice but not required for universal admiration. Our big plant has the gravitational pull of a black hole upon visitors who walk by a plethora of amazing rarities to pay homage to Fred. Frost-free.

Named for the central Mexican city from which it was collected this Beschorneria forms attractively lax rosettes of strappy evergreen foliage similar to a spineless version of the closely related Agave. Slightly narrower leaves than most in the genus and only growing to about 2' wide. The real showstopper are the 5' tall hot pink flower spikes that look like Barbie-ified Godzilla asparagus dangling greenish, pendulous flowers that add grandma's lampshade fringe into the mix.

The leaves held on salmon stems are a soft dark olive green and enhanced by purplish-red undersides. A rhizomatous type making a very eye-catching mound and this is before the pink flowers take it up another notch. Underplanted with golden Creeping Jenny - dang! Good houseplant or summer containers. Tender.

A unique evergreen member of the Myrtaceae family native to moist, rocky
areas within alpine and subalpine regions of Australia. This forms a
dense mound with arching branches, 3ft by 4ft with early summer small white
flowers en masse.
Diminutive leaves become coppery in winter, smelling lovely
when crushed. Appreciates some summer water during dry spells.

Our collection of this good foliage species with pink pipe cleaner flowers which closely resembles B. tricuspis and damned if we can distinguish between the two but a better botanist than we keyed this to spicata. This was growing in a shaded nook at the base of a mossy cliff with Actaea purpurea and across the track, Acer griseum. Fun shade species which should be deer resistant.

Staggeringly good foliage Begonia collected by Ozzie Johnson at Bai Dat Sun in northern Vietnam that we previously offered as cf. villifolia. Large tan-green leaves with a later than 5 o'clock shadow of red hairs. Pink flowers play peekaboo in the foliage. A species not fully trialed for hardiness but zone 8b with protection such as a mulch of wood shavings.

One of the very best woodland plants from China. This Ranunculaceae Family memeber has evergreen rounded glossy leaves evoking some exotic wild ginger. The plant forms a tidy dense clump with lots of comparatively tall stems bristling with puffs of white flowers. Moist soil is best.

A collection of this rhizomatous species from Hubei by Dan Hinkley which has proven hardy thus far in mild PNW gardens when mulched during the short arctic blasts that keeps Seattle from growing the same plants as San Francisco. But for that one cold week we could be growing this Begonia under flowering Puya. Good leaves lowers not seen or perhaps more truthfully, not remembered but will go out on a limb and say pink or white.

This is a cultivar being exported from Holland. The flower color is a shade darker than typical so that is good. What isn't good is that this is an imposter. One reference we found says the flowers should face upwards, this doesn't but if it did, it would merit clonal naming. "Shi-ran" is simply the Japanese name for Bletilla which would suggest that this was a generic import by the Dutch from Japan. aarrgghh. Every source we have seen that lists this selection has this same plant. All of this said, it is a slightly darker form and not unlike one we grew years ago as 'Rosea' also from Holland.

Shayne Chandler's collection from Vietnam of this assuredly tender but most enchanting Begonia. Long stems gloriously hirsute in red hairs hold broadly rounded palmate leaves whose upper surface is studded with carefully spaced green hairs and the underside veins bristle darkly. Pendulous white flowers are small but wow with calyces bearded thickly in Viking red. We easily overwinter this in a cool greenhouse.

This Zone 6 hardy orchid is a pretty serious Bletilla and it would have to be with a moniker like 'Big Bob'. It was a dream of mine to have a nickname like that but we'll delve into my psyche and childhood in another description. A fine selection with tall flower stems in ideal situations reaching 3' in height and bearing up to 15-20 pinkish unquestionably I'm-an-orchid flowers. A very vigorous selection which will go a long ways towards cementing your reputation as a gardener unafraid and somehow always managing to one-up everyone else in your gardening circle. These are chunky plants which you will find quite pleasing.

Unit price perPerhaps the most splendid yet in our little collection of these enigmatic little South American Peruvian lily relatives. This one comes to us from Ecuador via plant friend Chen Hao. The flaming red and orange flowers were something to behold in their inaugural appearance and are worth bending over backward like the resupinate leaves to lay eyes on. Likely vigorously vining where it can overwinter well, hard to say where that might be, anything less than Zone 9 is potentially a gamble but please report to us any positive results!

A hybrid Bergenia from the breeding work of Rosemarie Eskuche in Germany. 'David' has smallish leaves which stand quite upright taking on good color in the winter. Being smaller and upright lends itself to containers or the rock garden. Intense pink flowers on stems to 16" in spring are impossible to ignore unless of course you decorate with plastic flamingos.

Large green leaves in summer becoming muted somber puce in winter. This either heightens or lessens Seasonal Affective Disorder depending on how much you like puce. We do, so when we struggle emotionally with the unrelenting gray, a stroll by Ballawley keeps us briefly but firmly tethered. Tall rich pink flowers.

An eyecatcher as evidenced by our friend Brian, with exquisite taste in all things beautiful, when he made the hopeful inquiry "These probably aren't ready to sell yet" From a Malaysian botanic garden, this has sumptuous burnished metal leaves on the uppers with rich red undersides. White/pink flowers are not needed.
