While only given its proper species status relatively recently we can all be thankful that the original collector circa 1935 got his credit in the end lending us his zippy name, Oosting, and giving us this excellent and avant-garde Trillium found only in a few South Carolina locations. It’s not just the rarity that makes this haute-couture on the Trillium red carpet, though it has that well-covered too. Eschewing the standard Trillium garb of plain reds and whites this bold beauty pairs a bright acid green with a darkly alluring maroon base while the well-dappled leaves prove it knows how to accessorize.
An exquisite and rare shrub both in cultivation and in nature. This dwarf fringetree is found only in small Florida populations and is facing possible disappearance in the wild much like it's textile fashion equivalent but at least in the case of the plant not for lack of visual appeal. This unsuspecting tree explodes head to to skirt in a riot of long-petalled white flowers dangling gracefully like sleeves at a discotheque.

A newly described (2013) species found in..............wait for it.............Tennessee in just three locations. Incredibly rare and a very exciting find. These are seed grown from our plants, specimens used to describe the species and do not impact the wild population. Small yellow flowers with a maroon base. A Far Reaches Botanical Conservancy Offering. These are likely not flowering size. The good news is that they increase quite well vegetatively - we were pleasantly surprised when we lifted our plants and saw how much they increased.
A very rare member of this famously lustrous fern genus, this species is found only in two provinces of China. Possessed of delightfully round fronds that never fail to elicit cries of "that's a fern!", and that each with their glossy, pebbled texture look very much like fallen scales of some great dragon or dinosaur. The magic continues when the acrostichoid sporangia emerge, cloaking the entire back surface in what looks like fine black soot. Flora of China describes the rhizomes as long creeping but this hasn't been the case for us thus far as they have plodded along with small clumps with only a few new leaves at a time. We recently planted this out in our tufa wall and it already shows signs of increased vigor though so perhaps it just dislikes the confines of black plastic. Cold hardiness to be determined but we feel good about its chances in the PNW, a rocky substrate is desirable and a touch less moisture than most ferns.
Native to Chile, this is in the Solanaceae and will become a 4'-6' evergreen shrub with drooping and narrowly tubular yellow flowers with long exserted stamens. The foliage is a bit unpleasant when crushed - and only then - which makes us think it will be deer proof. Has proved hardy outside in our PT frost pocket for a good decade now, may get cut back by the fiercest winters but bounds back quickly. Good for a sunny position and was given the Award of Garden Merit by the Royal Horticultural Society.
