I've always been happy with the plants I've received from Heronswood Nursery (on the Kitsap Peninsula, I believe). I fell in love with the offerings from Mt. Tahoma Nursery, but I don't know whether they are mail-order only, and I haven't ordered yet, so I can't personally vouch for the quality of their plants. I'd LOVE to visit Cistus Nursery in Portland (as long as I'm thinking PNW road trip here...). I'm certain there must be some amazing nurseries in your region. Wait...find a book called "The Jewel Box Garden". The author runs a nursery in the Vancouver (Canada) area, I believe. I think that Collector's Nursery is in Washington not too far from Seattle, too. Again, I have no idea if they have on-site retail sales. If I'm not mistaken, Little and Lewis are based in the Seattle area as well (really cool garden art).

Hi Victoria Please, please come to the show on the 14th May. I can promise you that there will be LOTS of plants for sale (bring plenty of money and a large van if possible :-))) As Terry suggested, Hamiltons are usually well worth checking out. There are a few others, but I haven't got there details to hand. If you email me direct, I'll dig them out. LOL Fof

G'day dancacti, try Thornwood Gardens P. O. Box 282 Strathalbyn S.A. 5255. (Max Holmes). Max sells cacti Mail order, and they are nice healthy plants. His new list is due out this month I think, for 4X50c stamps he'll send you his catalogue when it's ready. Hope this helps. :) Cheers, CP

Bach's Cactus Nursery is perhaps the place you're looking for.
