Thanks Mike. I will see if I can buy some bare root next winter and get my own
stock plants going. I would love to get this out into the trade. It is
especially lovely for us in this part of Texas because it is native and adapted
to a large array of our soils in this region of TX.


V - If you email me (so I have your address), I'll let you
know if I find other sources for this.

Judging from pictures & what's written about this species,
it's a great plant. With our dogwoods along the coast having
succumbed to anthracnose, drought, and borers, a good small
flowering tree is needed. I'm also going to try Vitex
agnus-castus, which I've seen growing and flowering around
here in part shade (though the books say SUN: I get more
skeptical all the time).
