I finally found a nursery in NC that carried the Sweet Chariot mini that I
wanted for my front porch hanging baskets.

Spring Hill which sells a Purple Chariot (in 3" pots) (and a web search
indicated that was simply another name that the 1984 cultivar Sweet
Chariot is sold under), Bridges Roses in Lawndale NC (has a 704 area
code) had 3" pots of Sweet Chariot for $6.50 which arrived in about
36 hours from when I called, healthy and COVERED in buds. They are
kind of a yummy bold purple-y fuschia in color.

Now I need to find something with tiny white blooms to fill in around
them. White Alyssum? Anyone seen any nice ones in 6-packs?
Other suggestions?

Thanks to everyone who offered help and temptations. g

Email me in early July if interested in picking organic blueberries. Looks
like there should be plenty this year! I re-discovered that ancient organic
fertilizer Plant-Tone (my mother used to use it) and can't wait to see if it
improves the flavor of the berries from the big old bushes (hard to do, but
I am eager to find out!)
