I can't even count the total number of garden related catalogs sent in my mail. Today there were four. When this new catalog came it really caught my eye. Look at the title, "Roots and Rhizomes". What a great name for a nursery! Next I checked for their location, Wisconsin, in zone 4. Wow that's the same zone as me! The catalog suggests that they grow at least some of what they sell. Oh my, hardy chrysanthemums field grown in zone 4. Their Siberian iris collection is the largest I have seen. Angelica gigas is an old friend lost long ago. Purple single delphiniums bred for hardiness fairly jumped off the page. For two flower starved gardeners trapped in the house by ice and snow, the outcome was a foregone conclusion. We finished an order, and called it in today. They told me that their catalogs are gone. If you didn't get one, you'll have to look at it online.I must tell you I have never heard of this place before, but I have high hopes and expectations . Anyway, I love to get a box of plants in April. It's part of the thrill of spring gardening.
