I’m a little surprised google had no results for “Clematis tangutica herbarium” or “pressed Clematis tangutica”. Like, other species with just-as-small flowers and just-as-much vigor are in herbarium displays, why isn’t this species??? wtf

If you’re a TERF you’re not welcome in this plantblr community. Plants don’t conform to your expectations of gender and people don’t have to either. Bugger off and leave the gardeners/scientists that don’t conform to your expectations of gender/sex be. If you can’t even give others human decency for such dumb reasons then you’re not welcome here at all.

I’ve finally transplanted 4 different New England Asters into the new garden. They’ll be wilt-sulking for a while but if their grandma parent plant could bounce back from a sulk-transplant from a later time of the autumn year, they can too.

I probably won’t get much feedback, but y’know what? Gonna ask anyways to you of the internet-

Which of these perennials do you think I should order for sowing/growing then selling at my greenhouse this 2018/2019? Which would be your top 4? (starred are the native-to-Ontario species):

  • *Allium cernuum
  • Baptisia alba
  • Baptisia bracteata
  • Baptisia sphaerocarpa
  • *Caltha palustris
  • *Echinacea pallida
  • Echinacea paradoxa
  • *Penstemon digitalis
  • Penstemon grandiflorus
  • *Ratibida pinnata
  • *Veronia

    noveboracensis

The seed farm I was linked to supposedly resides in Ontario but the plant they’re proudly advertising as native, it isn’t considered native to Ontario by any information I can find

Delphinium exaltatum is not native to Ontario so either you’re wrong or your farm does not reside in Ontario- WHICH ANSWER IS IT-

@boodlesandtonicplz replied to your post “Honestly if this IS the legitimate site and not some trick…. even if…”

I haven’t been able to get it to load at all with my terrible connection, but yes. the hope of fluttery blue butterfly buttercups is enough.

It may not be due to internet connection; I was able to access it through this URL http://new.gardensnorth.com/ and tbh, I don’t think the site is actually running; I really do think this is just a copy.

So sadly, no darling blue native Clematis species for me oTL

GARDENSNORTH MAY POTENTIALLY BE HAVING ITS LAST FINAL SEASON IN BUSINESS?!?! Well this makes this year’s crop purchases a bit more weight than per usual fuck. GardensNorth is a seriously niche seed business this is a big deal!!!!
