Years ago I was surfing around and found a company in Madison, Ohio called Bluestone Perennials. My mother grew up in Madison, and I got it in my mind that I wanted perennials that grew in the same dirt my mother lived on. What can I say? Anyway, I ordered some stuff and loved it, so I ordered from them a few times, and probably will again someday.
And while my mother was alive, she was touched and thrilled to see flowers blooming that started in her hometown!
