I purchased two sets of Lady strain from Brecks two years ago. Seven of them are blooming this year (of ten). These are seedlings so they have some variability. I think this pic shows a pink and a red--my labels faded over time so I lost track of where I planted each type. I don't think any have been the really blue coloration. With their sale and coupon each one was under $3 each. Brent and Becky bulbs had a seedling mix this year (I don't remember the name)-- 6 for $40 but they are sold out. I was keeping my eye on them to try to get some during their 50% off sale. Two springs ago I purchased lilies and dahlias from B&Bs sale and they were incredibly floriferous the first year. Huge good quality bulbs. Bluestone has some attractive doubles but they are $12-$16 each. I purchased one randoms helleborus from bluestone 3 years ago and it is doing ok. I think it is in a bit of a dry spot. This post was edited by trovesoftrilliums on Sat, May 4, 13 at 10:47

NARGS has many sources on their links page. The closest one to you that I know would be Arrowhead Alpines in Fowlerville, MI. But I really don't know, as I am from Minnesota. Here is a link that might be useful: NARGS nursery & seed source links

Just realized that you ordered from Wellspring...I'm a little slow! Were you happy? I just ordered three more Saracenia, 'Dana's delight' and a sundew. Haven't received them yet. I do think it helped to transplant my previous plants them when they arrived...The growing mix they were in was very fine-textured. It looked like it might get too mushy, so I put them in bigger pots with long-fibered sphagnum and sand. Although the plants weren't very tall, (around 4') they had a lot of little pitchers (20 to 25!) and a really healthy root system. I was impressed with the price, considering how much starter plants cost elsewhere! Also, last year at Trader Joes (of all places) I lucked out with two Judith hindle and one Scarlette belle for around $6.00 each. If I had known how well they would do, I would have bought all of them! Keep an eye out this summer if you have a Trader Joe's in your area....These are the ones in the photo by my pond.

Wayside Gardens offers the striking dark violet-purple flowering agapanthus. However, I'm really surprised there are no nurseries near you that could special-order it, or one of the similar varieties. CA has 2 of the largest plant wholesalers in the country and most of the agapanthus sold in the US is grown in this state.
