Liriope spicata... for another area of the garden.

I found the pictures of the other set of gates I got from China. I have them in storage for a future project.

Beautiful wood for a rustic setting. I like the simplicity of the design. The wood grain is really lovely.

Any thoughts on vendors with these Asian items? Any that participate in “trade secrets”? (I’d love to get the carved dragon)

Sorry, never heard of them.

JC Raulston had a great episode on numerous plant vendors that ship: www.youtube.com/watch?v=NJXZ5-_f9Jo

If you send me your email address, I can send you the list of plants vendors mentioned in the video (the same list mentioned at the end of the video).

Thank you, Linus. I love JCR videos too and I watch them mostly in the wintertime. Very informative.

About Hirt's Gardens, I have never ordered anything from them either. The prices seem good compared to others. so I will order few (cheap) things from them when I'm ready.

Per JC R recommendations, I placed a small order from Mr. Maple this past weekend and I got them today! That is fast!!!! Plants are nice and healthy.
I got Ginkgo biloba "Troll" and Acer palmatum "Mikawa Yatsubusa". Both are a dwarf variety. Thank you, Linus.

As a fellow gardener said, I tithe to them regularly (especially subscribing to their 10 plant special emails they send Tuesday morning). If you’re on the east coast their shipping prices are really good.

Since I mentioned Hirts Gardens here, I have to give my 2 cents. If I have to grade them, I will give them 6.5 or 7 (scales of 1 to 10). No need for an explanation....
