I am interested in the Amsonia. Does it
need sun, shade or both? What is your address? It may be noonish before I can
get by. Would you be willing to save some for me?

Hi, neighbors. I have some little seedlings for adoption--that or
the weed pile. 1. Amsonia (narrow-leaf bluestar, originally from
Plant Delights): maybe 2'+ high at maturity, mostly about the feathery
foliage (golden in fall/winter) but the early blue stars/blossoms are
nice with blue-ish irises. 2. Nandina (non-dwarf): lots of volunteers around
the mother ship. Nice lacy faux-bamboo screening plant, about 4'-5',
plus the birds like the berries and the bees get dizzy bumbling around in the
pollen. 3. Red maple: just one, still teensy--but so pretty
(and expensive) as they grow larger. The parent is almost
certainly grafted onto another rootstock. I don't know if that's a
requirement for the tree to survive/thrive, but I hate to just tear it
out and throw it away. . . Email or stop by if you want any of the above. Judy Watkins & Dennis, pink house |
