Short Supply Plants

About:  Our short supply plants are the same high quality plants as our other offerings, we just don't have a large enough inventory to make online purchase manageable.  Building large inventories of some of these plants is slow or difficult, thus we would like to make them available as we have plants of saleable size and quality.  Named cultivars are at the top list and numbered seedlings follow.

Ordering:  Short Supply Plants must be ordered by emailing us with the following information:

We will then check our inventories, and if available, will email you a Paypal payment invoice that has an easy link for payment.  You may also pay via check through the mail, if you prefer (please indicate this when ordering).  Once you have paid we will send you, via email, a paid invoice for your plants.  Please do not order, if you do not intend to pay.  Unpaid invoices on Short Supply plants will be terminated within one week, as many of the plants are in high demand and we do not want to take opportunities away from others that would like to add these plants to their collections or gardens.  Please remember Peonies are shipped in the fall.

  Alice In Wonderland $80.00
  Reath Gorgeous semi-double yellow AGLH.  Pollen and seed.  Reported used in Intersectional crosses.  Plants are rather low growers for us in Wisconsin, but have proven hardy in the field.
  Aphrodite   $100.00 Daphnis Tremendously beautiful white semi-double.  Foliage is large, heavy and reminiscent of moutan, but flowers and carpels resemble lutea hybrid.  This plant does produce large seeds for us and we are growing our first crop seedlings of this from a cross of Angel Emily (a rockii hybrid of Bill Seidl's).  Gorgeous flowers.
  Bai Yu Lan $25.00   China White single Chinese selection.  This plant struggles somewhat in our open Wisconsin field.  In protected gardens it does quite nicely.  For gardeners that appreciate simplicity.
  Banquet $40.00   Saunders A gorgeous semi-double of outstanding clear rose-violet.  Foliage is finely cut.  Excellent plant habit and shows its flowers nicely.
  Center Stage $80.00 $45.00 Reath Single flowers of pure white with long rose flares.  Plants are mound shaped and fairly short for us.  Center Stage puts on a good show and is a very reliable bloomer.  Seldom available.  Quite unique in appearance and highly recommended.
  Chromotella: 45.00   Lemoine Golden yellow double.  Often needs support, but is an excellent cut flower.  Plants are fast growers and appear to like a bit of winter protection.  This one has rebloomed for us in late August through September in recent year, but spring flowers are by far the nicest. 
  Daedalus $40.00   Daphnis Super nice red semi-double to single flowers.  Plants are easy to grow and very hardy in the field.
  Da-Ja Palace   $50.00 Japan A Japanese moutan selection that has very large nicely ruffled flowers .  Plants grow slowly in our experience, but are good flower producers.  Very clear white in color and have strong stems that easily hold the flowers.
  Damask   $45.00 Saunders A flower of old gold to peach coloration with darker  flares.  Semi-double.  Flowers hang slightly, but are easily visible on short plants. Coloration is unique and is well worth growing.
  Demetra   $35.00 Daphnis A yellow semi-double with red picotte edges.  Another plant that seems to benefit from winter protection, but does easily survive in the field.  In more protected environments it will grow somewhat taller than the 30 inches we seen in field situations.  A beautiful flower and plant to say the least.
  DoJean   $50.00 Smithers A single white rockii hybrid with a ring of yellow stamens and hot pink sheath.  Outstanding and very winter hardy.  One of the very good rockii hybrids available.  Fertile.
  Francois   $35.00 Chow A single yellow AGLH from Bernard Chow in Australia.   Stem hardiness has not been outstanding here in Wisconsin, but the plant replenishes itself each year and blooms well.  A warmer climate would likely produce taller plants where stem could overwinter without damage.
  Fugumusume $40.00   Japan Semi-double to double Japanese moutan of bright hot pink.  This flower glows in the garden and can be seen from a great distance.  Plants are hardy and foliage is not course like many others in this group.  Super hardy and easily grown here in Wisconsin.  Fertile.
  Golden Experience $70.00   Reath A light yellow semi-double with hints of pink.  An AGLH.  Plants are husky and vigorous.  Flowers much resemble Golden Era, its sib.  Good pollen and will produce some seed with effort.

  Heart of Darkness $75.00

  Hinitori   $40.00 Japan Single to semi-double bright pink flowers that face upwards. Superior.  Japanese moutan.  There are certainly many pink flowered cultivars, but this one is a shade that will catch the eye.  Plants have nice foliage outlined in red.

Easily fertile both ways.
  Shima Daijin $45.00 $35.00 Japan Semi-double, purple, floriferous.  Japanese moutan.  One of the best for clear purple color.  Plants can be a bit slow to establish, but grow well.  Nice deep blue green foliage is an excellent back drop for the elegant flowers.

  Tessera $40.00   Daphnis Apricot pink blooms can appear orange at certain stages.  Flowers are single, but appear semi-double due to the habit of the buds staying ball shaped for much of their opening period.  Foliage is deeply lobed .  Typically grows continuously for us throughout the season and blooms on and off all summer into fall.
  Thunderbolt $50.00   Saunders One of the real dark red Saunders cultivars.  Flowers are large and open flat.  A semi-double that is reportedly fertile, we've not yet been able to set seed though and have not used pollen.  Foliage in nicely lobed and plants are good growers.

Hardy and recommended for beginners as well as collectors.
