Comments (2)Based on the picture numbers: 1. Heartleaf ginger, Hexastylis arifolia 2 and 3. Christmas fern 4. Looks like Black Cohosh (Actaea racemosa) but it would be good to see the bloom stalk more closely. 5. Some type of grape....See MoreWANTED: Raleigh Spring Swap 2009
Comments (48)Sally, I would love to trade with you for Tricyrtis 'Autumn Glow'. Do you have either of the variegated Tricyrtis' 'Lightning Strike' and or 'Samurai'? Also, either or both Monardas? I can dig some M. 'Jacob Kline' for you if you are interested. I am interested in either Canna and your Tradescatia and Var. Hosta if I have something that you would like in return. I posted a partial list of things that I have available earlier in this discussion. Are you still interested in Mexican Petunias? I need to dig several clumps from the flowerbed in front of our house and can bring you several if you want them. Root Digger. I will bring two Pineapple Guava and give them to Tammy for you. Brenda, my Impatien zombensis still lives. I can take a cutting and either bring it tomorrow, or root it myself and give it to you later? I bought an Impatiens species from Tony in February. I can divide a piece of it for you also if you like....See MoreAsarums in NE Georgia
Comments (6)There are about 110-120 species(opinions vary) of Asarum in the world and about half of those are easily or moderately easily cultivated in this area. I would start with some of the Eastern US natives, A. arifolium, A. shuttleworthii, var. harperi(the so-called Callaway Ginger), A. minor, A. virginicum, A. naniflorum and by all means A. speciosum, a species found only in 3 Ala. counties, that has the most spectactular flower(calyx) of any US native! Japanese species that do well here are; A. asperum, A. caulescens(deciduous), A. costatum, A. hexalobum, A. kiusianum, A. kumageanum(1st choice for attractive leaves), A. megacalyx, A. minamitanianum, A. nipponicum, A. sakawanum, a. subglobosum, A. takaoi, A. yakusimensis & A. hirsutisepalum. Chinese species; A. splendens(mentioned above), A. maximum(Panda-faced Ginger), A. campaniforme(Hort.)(species A. campaniflorum?), A. chinensis, A. forbesii, A. delavayi, A. magnificum, A. porphyronotum, A. longerhizomatosum & A. macranthum(Tiawan). I have these, plus others in my garden and they require little or no special attention after becoming established. Largest threat to new plantings is animal curosity and being uprooted. Best trnsplanted in fall or spring, but have reset them successfully anytime during the year. PM me for some sources of many of the mentioned species, two that are located in the metro Atlanta area.
