Wendy~I am finding myself drawn more and more to shrubs and trees. The powers that be said this would happen. Glad you like mine.

Megan~The Eremerus ‘Cleopatra’ that I mail ordered are starting to form buds. I am SO excited. Thanks for the tip. Now I know when to plan my next road trip.

Good timing for me on the Dancing Oaks endorsement. I got something from them at the sale yesterday, but right now I forget which plant is was. But they promised me 9′ tall flowering white Eremerus for sale in the fall, so I had them on my must visit list.

Entangled~In cooking? Really? New vistas keep opening before us.

Loree~Got mine at an HPSO sale. What do you suppose we will find THIS WEEKEND?

An enthusiastic YES to your question. Now I am going to edit this post to direct you to the one I wrote about the last visit to Dancing Oaks. I think you will be convinced.

Love love love that Poncirus trifoliata ‘Flying Dragon’ ! So would you recommend the trek to Dancing Oaks?

I always think of barberries as foliage plants too, and I didn’t realize there were other species available. I’ve heard of the berries being used in some cuisines, but now I wonder just which species that might be. Off to Wikipedia…
