Yes, I succumbed to the wares of Forest Farm. The latest issue of Garden Gate magazine (a mag which I love, btw) had an article about a barberry bush called 'Golden Ring' and well, I just had to have one. Forest Farm was referenced in the mag as the only nursery that carries it.And, of course, with the cost of shipping, it's never prudent to order just one plant from FF. So I got another barberry ('Helmond Pillar') and a small smoke bush (the lovely Cotinus coggygria 'Golden Spirit') while I was at it.
My penance? To flog myself repeatedly with the Bible-thick Spring '06 Forest Farm catalog. Out, you demons, out!

Oh, don't flog too hard! I'm sure you could take it, but you don't want to damage that catalog. You might need to read it a few times before you place a spring order, after all. ;)
By the way, I love the bunny pictures from a few days ago!
You're right, Blackswamp Girl...there won't be another FF catalog for awhile, so I'd better keep my flogging to a minimum...
Aren't bunnies just about the cutest things on Earth? The only thing cuter is a baby bunny, I think.
Great blog and photos. I'll be back!
I bought "Gold Ring" from Forest Farm, too...LOVE it!!
