Another exceptional introduction from the masters of their craft at Aberconwy Nursery in Wales. This red-flowered, mossy saxifage is one we were smitten by - along with literally every other plant - when we visited this Mecca for the alpine plant enthusiast. We visited Aberconwy and Bodnant in March and had to breathe into our paper lunch bags to keep from passing out.

Dwarf species of this cool New Zealand legume. This Little Baby has evergreen leaves on branchlets that zig and zag and interlace and weave in and out making this a fine bonsai specimen and rock garden candidate. The comparatively large pendulous yellow flowers are a delightful surprise. This should be deer resistant. Baby the first winter or two.

Tough plant from Russia and Romania with blue two-lipped flowers from June into September. This will get 2' to 3' tall and likes good drainage in sandy, gravelly situations where it can get occasional water although it is pretty drought tolerant. Being a Salvia, the Port Townsend gardening soul-crushing deer won't eat it.........yet. Once our Uptown PT herd exceeds 100, all bets are off. Thanks to Panayoti Kelaidis for sharing seed.

Consistent seedlings from a fine selection from Japan, this fall flowering shade perennial has soft old rose flowers that are unusually rounded and though small, there are lots. . 'Mai-hime' or often 'Maihime', translates to "Dancing Girl'' which still seems perfectly appropriate even though these differ from the named form.

Superb small tree from an area not botanized by westerners. This will have showy panicles of white flowers in late spring - early summer and is notable for having slightly bronzy new growth which adds to the allure. It has done superbly in full exposure here for several years - mute testament to its tolerance of adversity!

An uncommon New World subtropical blueberry relative native to the Andes. Can be epiphytic and has hanging thin branches up to 5' long but usually shorter with rounded pale green leaves. Just looks like it wants to be on a dipping cliff by a waterfall. Egg-shaped flowers that are white-pink with darker tips followed by translucent violet-tinged edible berries much like Agapetes. No frost. Way nifty.

Very pleasing collection by Jens and Remy Nilsen from China of this ornamental broadleaf evergreen. In the Theaceae or Camellia family, this has small but pretty white flowers and presents a carefully curated package of attributes with clean foliage coloring well in winter, good form and complementary flowers. Ours survived fine one winter at 10F and expired another at 13F. This was in full exposure to both sun and wind and typically in the wild, these grow in mixed woodlands often on the edges enjoying some shelter much like Rhododendrons or Camellias which would have made all the difference. Plants - such sublime torture.

This species of the uniformly winning genus hails from Southeast Asia and India. Glossy evergreen foliage slightly longer than many of its fellows paired with fragrant white flowers nestled nicely in the leaf axils across much of the stem make it a solid choice of medium size shrub for a relatively mild spot.

This Greek representative of the delightful alpine primula relative hails from the eponymous Pindus mountains. Characteristic glossy evergreen 'little coin foliage' underlies the distinctive fringed cone flowers. Those flowers take on a lovely dusky purple that pronounce it's maturity and propensity for depth and pretension over its more common, populist cousins, a real kill joy at family gatherings, but an understated joy in the rock garden.

Unit price perA fast-growing collection from the second-tallest mountain in Vietnam. Schima is in the Theaceae or Camellia family and is widespread in Asia. The small white flowers are most attractive and this species has very good foliage. Not seen in flower and hardiness is unknown, typical of new introductions. These were grown from cutting from a plant selected for its excellent red to salmon new growth. A Far Reaches Botanical Conservancy offering. Some species can become towering old-growth trees such as we have seen in southern Yunnan but this was just a youngster at 25'.

A rarity in cultivation, this petite member of the Irregulares section of Saxifraga comes from our collection on the highest peak in the southern Wumengshan in Guizhou. This was found in a deep cleft in a low limestone face shaded by scrub and is now lost due to habitat destruction. Nice airy white flowers midsummer.

These Sanguisorba arose as self-sown seedlings from our sales area where we have had various species and selections for sale. We are using the catch-all "hybrids" because the bees adore the pink to red conical flowers and they were visiting all of them! Customers were always asking if we had the plant blooming under the tables - now we do.

A Hinkley collection from Taiwan of this interesting Composite whose deeply dissected foliage carries the day and is especially effective in half sun. Not a genus that leaps to the fore when thinking of flowers, this is a great foliage plant and intriguing in first growth. Collected as S. intermedia, this is most likely the species subglabrata. We have yet to meet a Syneilesis that we don't think highly of - (well, there are the unstable variegated ones) - and when mature, these tough clumping perennials literally force you to stop and admire.

Annointed as the "Queen of the Umbels", this is what Queen Anne's Lace would look like after a top design team makeover. The refined supreme lacery of foliage and polished presentation of 8" white platters of flowers belies a certain innocent muscularity. The epitome of texture.

Blue-Eyed Grass. A West Coast and Washington State native that grows in mid to higher elevations in moist locations. This is very easy in our lowland gardens and a nice addition to the native plant garden. Low tuffets of green grassy blades and small blue-lavender flowers. A North American analog to the South American Sisyrinchium chilense.

Our collection of this hardy evergreen, Asian Witch Hazel relative. This will become a small tree in time to 20'-30' and can be very useful as screening or a dark backdrop. Here, the Feb-March flowers forego any petal modesty and celebrate their sexual parts on full display. That brings back sadly distant memories. Undamaged by our winters in full exposure.

Fringe-petal Kitten-tail. This is an uncommon native found in small areas of the Olympic Mts and in Oregon's Clatsop County. An early spring treat for the collector, this has rounded leaves with toothed margins and impressed veins that emerge a light olive-copper color. Small lilac flowers cluster on short stems and the petal margins are incised. A rare offering. Some treatments place this in the genus Veronica but we prefer Synthyris. Light shade or morning sun is good.

A medium sized tree in the wild, this is from the same remote mountain which yielded the first introductions of Schefflera fengii and Rhododendron sinofalconeri some 25 years ago and has not been revisited since. Vigorous tree with copious white flowers we presume followed by nutlets. A Far Reaches Botanical Conservancy Offering

Any and all Styrax appeal to us and this was a necessary collection as a result. A vigorous tree of good size widely distributed in southern China and into adjoining countries to the south. This will have a lot of small, white bells in spring followed by pale nutlets clasped by a somewhat swollen green calyx. A very few of these gallon-sized plants. We will have to flower this to ID it for sure as China alone has nearly 40 species. Hardiness unknown but from relatively low elevation. A Far Reaches Botanical Conservancy Offering.

First introduction to cultivation! Our collection of this rare species in a genus of excellent foliage perennials. Sue spotted this on an evening plant reccy while Kelly took to bed nursing a rib fracture incurred earlier while collecting fruit on a Photinia. A Photinia of all things!
