Jeffersonia dubia Zones 4-8 #048-005

Famaous woodland rock garden plant from Korea, long cultivated in Japan. Easy in light shade in gritty or gravelly soil where it will form large clumps. Pretty up-facing light blue flowers in early spring are followed by attractive two-lobed leaves.

A tall woodland perennial for late summer bloom with showy spikes of white flowers on 2-3' stalks.

Essential perennial for structure and contrast in the shade garden. Bold and shrub-like, with gray-green maple-shaped leaves and pendant clusters of waxy pale yellow flowers in late summer.
Leucosceptrum japonicum Zones 5-9 #030-004

Japanese woodland perennial for early autumn bloom. Spikes of soft yellow flowers are held above matte-green leaves on stems about 2 feet tall. Light shade or morning sun.
Leucosceptrum japonicum 'Mountain Madness' Zones 5-9 #030-005

A wild and crazy variant of a choice fall blooming perennial. The yellow-splashed foliage harmonizes with the pale yellow flower spikes and adds interest when the plant is not in bloom. Woodsy soil in light to medium shade; not drought tolerant.

Extremely rare woodland lily with elegant pale pink trumpet flowers in June. This wild form from Shikoku has leaves with frosted white edges. Moist, well-drained soil in light shade, excellent rock garden plant. Very fragrant.
Lilium maclatum ssp.davuricum f. rebunense Zones 4-9 #058-004
Rare and exciting lily from Rebun Island in the far north of Japan, where it grows among rocks and in sand near the ocean. The tough stems reach only about 5 inches tall, but are topped with one to three upfacing bowl-shaped orange flowers with dark spots. Easy in well drained soil in sun to light shade. Beautiful trough or rock garden subject.
Lilium triginum Double flower 'Kagaribi' Zones 4-8 #058-006
A magnificent new full-double tiger lily from Japan with large many-petaled flowers. This Kagaribi was found in Kumamoto pref., Kyusyu area about 6 years ago and I got a bulb from a collector. I propagate from offsets and finally offer for overseas. Vigorous and easy to grow.
