May
12, 2007 - 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM
You have a difficult choice to make.
I've already announced Dr. Bob Freckmann's tour of Powers Bluff for the
Wisconsin Botanical Club. Your second option for May 12, 2007, is a tour
of Jim & Carol Bray's Hickory Road Gardens in Mosinee. Jim & Carol are
CWWO members who have started a commercial garden of native Wisconsin
woodland plants. Some of us enjoyed a tour of their gardens last year and
determined to return to see their beautiful flowers in bloom.
I attach a copy of the Hickory Road
Gardens plant availability and price list. Jim also said that if we want
to take potted plants rather than bare root stock, he could pot the plants
you are interested in before they break dormancy in the Spring. In
addition to those plants on the attached list, you will also see any
number of woodland plants that are not yet ready for sale but will be
available in a year or two. For me, the highlight of our last trip was
seeing Green Dragon (Arisaema dracontium) plants whose seedlings will one
day be for sale . . . as well as the opportunity to purchase some big Blue
Bottle Gentian and several large Golden Seal at quite reasonable prices.
