We believe Rhett, this Crocosmia is no lady. Really, are you looking for some refined creature when you buy a Crocosmia? I think not - it's hussies, hotties, tramps and trollops that get's it done in the garden during the dog days of summer when we need some over the top flamboyance - save the demure for spring 'cause it clashes with Mojitos! This has big heads of bright red flowers which are spaced closely together amplifying the floral impact. Nicely compact just 24" tall at best and remains in a tight clump. This is from David Tristram of Walberton Nursery in the UK.

From the breeding work of Bob Brown comes this crazy good plant. On very stout stems, the big flowers with broad rounded tepals are bunched together in nice fat heads and the flowers are a melange of peachy apricoty pink hues. One of the very best of the recent introductions. Expect this to get 36"-40" and it is a slow clumper so it will be awhile before you need to divide it.

A fine Corydalis collected by Hinkley in Sichuan and there is speculation that it might be a flexuosa x elata hybrid. What we know is that it is an excellent garden plant with loads of light blue flowers which puts on quite the show. Best in light shade or morning sun and moist.

One of the better of the clear yellow hybrids with nicely presented flowers that while of good size are not so overly large that they bow down the stems. We've come to like the clean yellows as they bring something refreshingly uncomplicated to the garden bed and the fewer issues in bed, the better.

A selection we received years ago from Piping Tree Nursery in West Virginia which was known for their eponymous native plant selections. This is a big honker of a Lily of the Valley with very large leaves towards the upper limits of the variety. We are near certain of this being variety montana but have not looked at the flower bracts to confirm, hence the cf. qualifier. Familiar white scented flowers in a magnified format that literally puts this head and shoulders above the rest.

Gold Thread. This is a rare native to WA but more common in BC and AK. Great evergreen groundcover for moist shade with glossy parsley leaves and golden thin rhizomes hence the common name. Dye plant and most likely medicinal. This spreads well in loose moist soil.

Choice and uncommon Japanese native making a many stemmed plant with lots of white bottle-brush flowers in spring. The glossy green and nicely textured leaves are pleasant the rest of the season.

Chicken Feet. Native to China and named for the floral phalangeal arrangement of small greenish white flowers on thin stems which are quite fragrant. Widely grown subshrub for its use as an aromatic especially for a tea additive and for medicinal properties. Useful in the frost-free or nearly so shade garden. We've enjoyed more than a few chicken feet at meals in our travels through areas where this grows.

From the venerable plant at the UW Arboretum comes this promising bottle brush. The plant at the UW has weathered every fluke weather event in the last 20 years and emerged unscathed. Narrowly yet densely upright with pale yellow-white bottle brush flowers and evergreen needley leaves.

Big cheerful yellow flowers which open widely on stems to nearly 30" tall are the reason for growing this selection. This can help make some of the late season fiery colors seem even more intense by comparison or if asked to carry the floral load on its own, it is more than up to the task.

Cutting-grown plants of this evergreen Dogwood from our collection in Asia. Quite a handsome plant in both the wild and our garden which sports soft yellow flowers in June and July. Later, the round red fruit go from being attractive ornament on the tree to tasty snacks on the trail. Which is how we got ours. Our tree in the garden has handled low teens in the winter surprisingly well.

One of our favorites - and we know you have seen this on other Crocosmia labels here - but it is even more true with this one! Not to say the others are less favored, mind you. Large, wide open orange-yellow flowers with a vivid dark orange ring in the center surrounding a slightly paler throat. Well-displayed to nearly 3' tall.

A dramatic species from Sichuan Province in China with most collections coming from Mount Emei, the highest of the Four Sacred Buddhist Mountains in China. Gorgeous dramatic large leaves with leaflets striped in yellow. A patch of this will temporarily stop conversation. Deciduous.

Heal-All, Stone Root. Tuberous form of this widespread East Coast species which we received from Aaron Floden. Widely used in ethnobotany and homeopathy, this is an interesting shade ornamental in its own right. Broad soft leaves and curious late-season, creamy yellow flowers whose strong Lemon Pledge scent will put a shine on your garden.

One of the showiest in this genus of vining Bellflowers. Large purple-blue flowers with a dark ring - sometimes pure white - quickens our pulses in either expression. Recently reduced from species status, grey-wilsonii has been retained as a geographic race of the species convolvulacea based on larger leaves and flowers.

We are smitten by the hardy gingers which we can grow and flower in our cold pocket garden and Cautleya is a genus that does just that. This species is a graceful member of the genus and ranges from Bhutan to Thailand. This collections hails from Vietnam and is often found growing on rocks, trees or rotting logs. This has the classic presentation for the species with clear yellow flowers and red calyces. We suggest mulching for winter.

Cardiocrinum is exciting enough but variety yunnanense with its burnished copper new growth causes pulses to elevate along with dilated pupils and flaring nostrils. When this is blooming it is almost as good as sex. It takes a few years but purple flushed white flowers on 12' stalks - oh yes!

This is our best guess as to what this plant is which we got as cuttings from obssessive plant collector Marian Raitz's garden. High degree of confidence in our guess, by the way. Award of Merit selection, this is an impressive evergreen shrub with graceful branches carrying white flowers and very good yellow fruit.

Quite a magnificent selection from Fernhill Gardens in Dublin, Ireland. Broad pleated leaves somewhat arching are simply perfect with the fat spikes of closely spaced yellow-orange flowers. Our plants came from the extraordinary garden of Linda Cochran and the best planting we have seen of this was at Nita Jo Rountrees luscious garden.

As neither of us were lucky enough to be debutantes ourselves, growing this 'Debutante' is ample solace. The flowers are small but tend to face upwards opening orange but fading rapidly to a soft pink in the interior which is accented by a yellow eye while the exterior retains a deeper orange-red coloring. To 30" of tidy habit with conservative values until it blooms with a rate of increase that might be best described as restrained with the weight of past generations measuring the suppression of potential impropriety.
