A rarely encountered species from China as you might have guessed from its specific epithet. This is from a wild collection by a plant hunting friend of ours and has proven to be a very good grower. A smaller plant with stems to a foot or less tall with rounded leaves and green-tipped white flowers. This increases fairly quickly becoming a worthy collectible addition in the garden.

Originally from Maurice Foster who is one of the UK's great plantsmen who would not gladly brook an inferior form. This can hit 10'+ in height with a narrow aspect and generally deciduous willowish or bamboo-like leaves. Small purplish flowers and outrageous jester's cap fruit with dangling orange arils. This used to be the variety quinquecornutus but that has been sunk. We've seen this various times in China and Vietnam and always get the same pleasant rush.

A collection by plantsman extraordinaire Darrell Probst from China. This has evergreen broadly grassy leaves and nice spikes of lavender flowers held above the foliage. A lovely rarity.

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.

This is an interesting Asian fern of which we have just a few nice divisions. This grows as an epiphyte on tree trunks which is typical for the genus and was found at the high point in the mountain range so should have some hardiness. The distinctive large rounded paired sori on the backs of the leaves also fit the genus. This has been a good grower with creeping rhizomes allowing for division. Proceeds from this offering go to support the mission of Far Reaches Botanical Conservancy.

Elegant, graceful and beautiful form of the species with thin radially arranged leaflets and lovely narrow-waisted dark purple flowers accented by white stripes held fully visible below. The spathe limb or hood of the flower tapers to a long thread. This variety lacks hairs on the spathe tube rim or lip which would need magnification to see anyway. Increases by short runners terminating in a bulb and will form a colony in time. We saw this just above Kangding in China in 2006 including a fantastic black-leafed colony of a single clone which resides not in our garden but in our memories as a longing unfulfilled.

A fine little dwarf Astilbe native to Japan and one that has proved to be very enduring as well as endearing. This is one Sue used to grow at her old place in northern Vermont and charmed her to the point that it made the cut and followed her out west lo those many years ago. Low mounds of dense and finely cut foliage with short spikes of soft pink fluff in early summer. We grow this out in the full sun with ample water.

Our collection from Leipingshan at 1800 meters in Guizhou in the fall of 2012. We always get a kick out of this species with its long tropical pinnate leaves. insignificant pale flowers and extraordinarily significant clustered large blue bean pod fruit looking otherwordly. Narrow small tree and very easy.

This is one of our favorite little dwarf shrubs that totally rocks the rock garden. Especially in the rock garden. Slow, slow growth, densely twiggy, small heavily textured leaves and clusters of deep pink flowers in mid summer makes this a great choice for containers or that small special place. A 15 year old plant might be 16" tall but probably shorter.

This species was only recently described by botanist Julian Shaw in 2012 from a collection in Hoang Lien Son range on the second summit trail of Phansi Pu in Vietnam. These are second-generation seed-grown plants from a 2011 recollection by Floden-Mitchell & Wynn-Jones. Discovered and introduced by Bleddyn Wynn-Jones with the expected evergreen leaves and early season scented white flowers. These are young plants.

Our collection from Asia of what is likely the first introduction of this exceptional form of this equally exceptionally rare variety. Attractive leaves that are terminally cleft into bilateral lobes. The 12" long hanging panicles of white flowers are the finest in the genus, holding their own among the best of flowering trees. So much better than the straight species. Young cutting-grown plants which will grow fast. Who's your plant daddy!!!!! Photo credit to Steve Hootman.

Our collection as cuttings from the Cangshan in Yunnan of an especially small leafed form of this evergreen species. Steve Hootman of the Rhododendron Species Botanical garden now and again mutters about giving it a clonal name. Probably best in a mild garden.

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.

Our collection from Longshou in Sichuan where this was a small 3'-4' rounded shrub in full exposure eking out a living on a small rock face. This is a little different than what is in cultivation as the leaves appear to have a higher degree of fine dentition on the margins and the white flowers are bunched in tubular clusters. This will be a good tough and deer resistant plant.

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.

Blackberry Lily. Our collection of this extremely widespread Asian species which not only has attractive deep orange flowers that are overlaid in a plethora of red spots but also the seed is curiously attractive looking for all the world like a large blackberry. This has wide application in traditional Chinese medicine and our collection is likely an escapee from the local mountain village.

Interesting member of the Solanaceae which we collected in Bita Hai in Yunnan waaaay back in 1997. Totally dormant in winter, this bursts forth in late spring and rapidly makes a multi-stemmed plant up to 5' high with curious nearly waxy 1.5" pale greenish flowers like overturned spittoons. Poisonous rhizomes are used medicinally. Thanks to Cody Hinchliff for keying.

Chinese May Apple. This is an impressive plant - truly one to give the shade garden some visual impact. Big leaves get up to 18" across with bizarre clusters of red flowers held beneath which are followed by bunches of green cherry tomato-like fruit ripening soft yellow.. Rich moist soil in shade to bits of sun.

A regrettably tender species of the Maddenia section which we brought back as a cutting from the Cangshan in the fall of 1997 and these are cutting-grown from that plant. Every terminal bud bursts into large white flowers with a soft yellow throat which are sweetly scented. Sunroom in winter.

Second generation seedlings from a Hinkley collection in Sichuan of this fine Lilac which can be kept as a large shrub or trained up to be a small tree. Pendulous flowers white to pale pink inside with a lavender-pink reverse. Very attractive and trouble free.
