Alex Duguid was the original owner, we believe, of Edrom Nursery in Scotland who grew this particular plant as a strain of Gentiana farreri. This proved quite excellent, combining the compact nature of farreri with the pale sky blue flowers attributed to G. ternifolia. At least this is the speculation of Jim Jermyn, who later owned Edrom Nursery. The outstanding qualities of this plant were recognized and it was named for the original grower. Alex did good. As with all of these Asiatic Gentians, lots of sun and water - they flag if too dry and decline if too shady. Excellent plant and increases readily.

This deciduous and broadly distributed Asian fern boasts alternately pinnate fronds up to nearly 2' long that gives it a certain je ne sais quoi while not straying too far from the archetypical fern appearance. Pair that with its ease, tolerance for deep shade, reliability and you get a surprisingly well-rounded do-er considering its uncommon availability on the market.

Our seed collection of Martindale's Desert Parsley from our nearby Olympic Mountains. This West Coast native umbellifer is found from sea level to the mountains where it inhabits dry meadows and dry. often rocky, slopes. Yellow flowers from this population where it grew with 3 species of Allium and Delphinium menziesii. Goes summer dormant and great for the rock garden.

An Asiatic hybrid Gentian which we brought in from the UK. Dark blue, upward-facing flowers are................really nice. Sorry - memory of this in flower last year caused the gray matter to assume the consistency of molten chocolate cake and briefly lost all the pretty words. A particularly floriferous selection as well.

One of the hardiest Leptospermums, this creeping form is from the alpine areas of Tasmania and has grown for many years at the Arboretum in Seattle. Evergreen leaves with small white flowers, this would be a shame not to have it in the rock garden and a greater shame not to have it spilling over a wall.

Unflowered seed-grown plants of this short woody species which we presume will come true but cannot discount reverting to the norm of red or yellow. This came to us many years ago from the Washington Park Arboretum in Seattle. Multiple woody stems to 3'-4' tall with well-dissected leaves and small ORANGE flowers. Plant where you can get close to the flowers for an intimate revel. Our original plant was a gift from Paul Caldwell who inherited it from former Rhododendron Species Foundation curator, Ken Gambrill back in the previous century. Deep background.

It is not enough to just collect the Wulfenia species but one must have the hybrid as well. And this natural progression of the collector disorder is a very good thing indeed as this is both intriguing and lovely. In part to light shade, this will tweak expectations of spring bloom with 10'' spikes of blue flowers that carry the graceful effect of a Penstemon gone astray in the best possible way in the woodland.

Staggeringly good False Solomon Seal from China which owns its corner of our shade garden when it is in bloom. The very gratifying terminal white flowers are a reward unto themselves but on a big clump like we have, the fragrance from these makes this a multi-sensory experience of the very best sort. Small red fruit if you are lucky.

These were shared with us by Kelly's mentor and fair to say, hero, the late Steve Doonan of Grand Ridge Nursery. A superb selection with petaloid stamens giving this a robust doubled appearance. Always hard to come by and much sought after, this will in time make a nice carpet of ostentation of which we were at first embarrassed by our display of excess but we have managed to come to terms with it. These are multi-eyed divisions potted this winter so there won't be much for roots until they start growing this spring but will be nice plants. We would like to save them until they are fully rooted out but they always sell here before that happens so we have listed them with the root caveat.

A comparatively graceful species of Veratrum with broadly narrow leaves, if that makes any sense and sadly, it does to us. The 4'-5' flower stem has numerous lateral branchlets clad in lots of red-maroon flowers. To compare to the better-known V. nigrum, narrower leaves, flower stems much more open with flowers more red than purple-black. Excellent long-lived plant of outstanding hardiness best suited for the cool to cold zones. Deer resistant as well.

A seedling selection named by us for the extra large flowers which when compared to others, is not only beyond the pale ones but all others as well. Signaling the end of summer, the September-October flowers of the palest pink are similar to the cultivar 'Pallida' but bigger so of course it has to be better. These will be ecstatic in rich, moist soil in a sunny position. Used to be Schizostylis.

One of the good ones raised by Keith Lever at Aberconwy Nursery in Wales and granted an Award of Merit by the Royal Horticultural Society in 1991. Large trumpets of dark royal blue tempered with violet and lit by white exterior stripes and throat. This is a compact grower which makes for a concentrated display of these flowers and would be a suitable subject for a pot. Full sun in moist soil for best results.

A free-flowering, lower carpeting form of this choice species that is ideal in the rock garden and one we acquired from our friends at Rumbling Bridge Nursery in Scotland. This Croatian native has a tidy personna, showy mauve-pink flowers and small leaves coloring well in winter. When we say carpeting, it's more of a place mat.

Found growing along coastal Maine and up the eastern Canadian seaboard, this was known as the dwarf form of I. setosa but is now regarded as a distinct species. Favoring moist places but adapting very well to average garden conditions, this is best described in the most rigorous of botanical terms as "Cute". Very hardy.

A rare wild-origin offering of this hardy-for-us species. This develops stout vertical stems which hold palm-like leaves consisting of 8 narrow green leaflets. The late-season pink flowers ignite the pleasure centers which had been happily simmering all summer from the foliar architecture. Nice to introduce some new genetics of this species. Hardy down to zone 8 with a loose mulch. A Far Reaches Botanical Conservancy Offering.

Rich deep blue trumpets with exterior pale striping on this collection from a 10,000' alpine moist meadow where it mingled with too many Primula, dwarf Rhododendron and a Bistorta that unexpectedly threatened to steal the show. This requires rich, moist acid soil with afternoon shade in hot sun areas.

A fragrant free-flowering and good perennial blue Corydalis. That blue is displayed in a quantity of such a pure intensity that it can leave one in a state of unintelligible, ecstatic glossolalia. It is best to dress accordingly as you want to be looking fine if that happens. To 12"+ and wider, rich and moist.

A pleasantly architectural plant with upright stems piercing a succession of single leaves topped with a small constellation of flowers, marked by a star-like collection of sepals in which the several inconspicuous-but-charming flowers lie. The overall effect is very sunny and would go great in a meadow-esque setting with fellow Apiaceae members or the like. Not to mention this is one cool customer, hardy down to -35 Fahrenheit, making it cold tolerant anywhere in the continental US!

This gets more than its share of attention in our shade garden causing people to completely ignore the poor Gaultheria x wisleyensis on the other side of the path. Gold washed, flecked and stippled foliage with light pink lacecap flowers. An excellent Japanese selection.
