Dear TWC, I've got Wake Robin Trillium - Trillium erectum. Let me know if you'd like some. I'm looking for myself for Celadine Poppy, and any of the native sedges like carex bicknelli, greyii, stricta etc. Can be any type of native sedge, just some examples. If not, maybe a trade for some bloodroot, that's really hard to come by.

thanx Sharon! No I don't go for the whole taking a drive in the country with your spade thing... I've wanted an Alberta Wild Rose bush for years, and it's taken me 2 years of trying to germinate seeds but I've got 5 seedlings planted out already and 3 more in containers! I'm checking out those 2 websites, and I'll run upstairs and grab my credit card to order!!!

Exactly what hostaholic said. I brought mine in to my daughter's classroom for all to see. I dug a big ball so as not to disturb the root ball. If the soil is really dry I'd water the plant a little so the dirt doesn't crumble but not so much that it's mud.

Hi terrestrial man! I don't think drainage is the problem, it's in the best area of our property soil-wise, 20 years of leaf mold. I think the real problem with my formosanum is that they were smallish to begin with. I do grow about 5 or 6 species of trilliums, and doesn't C. reginae need more chill than formosanum? We get in the mid to upper teens in winter, and about 90 nights below freezing every winter (I'm in a cold spot), plus our nights are in the low 50s or below year-round. Anyway, I love these terrestrial orchids, and would love to get some of the California natives going here, there's a Cal-native ladyslipper native to the county I live in (Sonoma). But, I've never found any sources for any of the California ones. --Ron
