Looking for toad lily
« on: May 31, 2007, 08:17:08 PM »
I am looking for Tricyrtis Miyazaki  and any other toad lily's.  I seen some pictures of them and they are georgous,  I just have to have some now.  I have some red king humbert canna bulbs that are starting to grow and some unnamed irises some are yellow and some are purple and I have what i think is a flag iris also to trade or I will pay shipping.  If anyone has some they are willing to part with just let me know  O0

Sadly, I don't have extra, I think my lily of the valley has smothered them but you will like them if you get them. They are cool. Not showy from a distance but very worthy up close.

I have some, but they are new and not large enough to divide.  Also, not sure offhand what cultivar they are.  One thing I did want to pass on to you was that I just read a big article about toad lilies and they are saying that there is a new virus infecting them.  http://www.perennialnursery.com/tricyrtisvirus.html  Such a bummer and I hope mine are ok.  I have not have blooms yet.....

Mine was spectacular this past fall.  Here is a one of the arching stems from her:

I am not interested in any plant since we are planning to move this winter, but I would consider selling you a nice start if you want one.

luvmyasagis, Thank you so much for thinking of me and my toad lily and the heads up email.  I am YachtLady here on American Ponders and that is my post just above yours.  That's the same picture I sent you. Monica is one of my best customers and I am just finishing up a very large hosta order for her, so she kind of knows me pretty well.  But there was no way for you to know any of that. 

Thanks,
Karen

PS - Monica, I am shipping your order Monday cause I just finished it moments ago (did you see the post that I am sending you some Japanese Maples).  If you are interested in the Toad Lily, let me know before that so that I can include it in your box.  OK?

LeeAnne, I have been so busy filling orders to update it from last year and that link is broken!!!!!!  I'm still not certain what I have left.  I know I don't have any more Blue Mammoth, Krossa Regal, Sagae or Regal Splender.  I am also adding some of the ones I didn't offer last year.  Some are about 20+ years old and beauties.  I just need time.  If you are on DSL I can send you last years catalog, but it isn't totally up to date.  If you are on dial up it takes about an hour to upload on DSL a minute or three.  Just drop me an email.  If I had it last year, I apologize, but my computer did a mind melt when a field mouse urinated on my mother board this past winter!

A whole lot more hostas came back this year in my beds than I ever expected considering what went out of here last year.  I've got left a plethera of Tokudama flavocircinalis, Golden Tiara, Blue Cadet, Feather Boa, Gold Standard, Royal Standard, Honeybells, Hiachynthina, WalMart Special, August Moon, Albomarginata and the ever popular Undulata variegata (which I have about 2000 of if anyone wants to build a big bed of Undulatas.)  I also just found a large cluster of Sieboldiana Elegans tucked away in the woods where I forgot I'd put them!!!  Other than those, I'm not sure what else I have right now, but there are lots of them. 

Now, how can I sign up for a 40 hours day in order to get the new catalog out. . . .

I just seen your posts Karen.  I haven't looked at this post since I posted it.  Thanks again for all the hosta's as soon as I know they are mailed I will be waiting on the mail man and doing the happy dance @O@.  I think he hates me after last year anyway.  Actually I think he retired  {:-P;;I haven't seen him for a while there has been a girl.  Guess he got tired of carrying around all my boxes  {:-P;;.  At least he is a rual carrier and not a city one  :).
