I have hostas that were here when we bought the house. I have no idea what kind they are. They have solid green leaves and white flowers that might be fragrant. Also, I have culinary sage plants. I also have seeds to parsely and dill. I would be interested in your Arkansas Amsonia, as well as your agastache and Black Knight Buddleia, what ever you have extras of. Also, anything that attracts butterflies and hummingbirds on your list.

Hello! I have 3 different types of Hosta, most of which have a form of variegation that are really nice looking; but after looking at your trade list, I am beginning to think you'd prefer only named varieties. I also have a solid green variety that's nice. I have a few Dayliles that are named but none from your list.

Anyways...hopefully you'll be in the market for any of the above as I've always admired the Akansas Amsonia for a long time.

Thx for considering...have a good weekend!

Thank you. It's helpful. Perhaps I did not ask the right question for the first time. What I was trying to ask was if any of the shrubs (except the Amsonia, which I learned now is not a shrub at all. We will eliminate it. Since burning bush is invasive, we eliminate it too) I mentioned above are deciduous shrubs that behave like Forsythia flowering in winter when leafless? So...... they are not just gray stumps and branches in winter time but actually bearing something.

I love the texture and the blue flowers. It stays upright and looks neat all summer. I don't get a lot of fall color since there is often a hard freeze before it fully develops that lovely gold. However, I don't regret my plants - they are quite lovely even without the fall color.

I always see amsonia in my plant catalogs and have been tempted, but I haven't tried it yet. It's native to Arkansas where I was born and raised, but I just don't remember seeing it growing there. Pam
