Hacquetia epipactis
There ain't nuthin' like this. Early spring yellow stars followed by leathery lobed green leaves in a dense low mound. It is the early yellow flowers that steal the show in part because they have so little competition and in part because they are so unique.

Hakonechloa macra 'Aureola'
I have always been attracted to aureolas and this Aureola is one of the finest. One of the 10 best ornamental grasses and perhaps the best for light shade, this deciduous species from Japan forms a beautiful undulating surf of foliage when planted in drifts. It is a great plant.

Hebe recurva
This has been a fantastic Hebe in our garden handling our worst winters with aplomb. A low 20" x30" evergreen shrub with narrow gray-blue leaves and lots of small white flowers for at least 2 months June-August. Ours looks great planted with Mertensia maritima and it is perfectly ok to steal this planting combination.

Hedera helix 'Dyinnii'
An extremely dwarf Ivy found in 2005 by Dutch nurseryman Cees van Ostaayen who noticed a miniature sport on Hedera helix 'Needle Point'. This one came to our attention in John Massey's private garden at Ashwood Nursery where it called to us from among the abundance of rarities and perfection. Should this little gem throw a shoot that is unnecessarily more vigorous in an attempt to revert, just nip it off.

Hedychium cf. spicatum v. spicatum MD0670 (H. yunnanense?)
This a good form of the species from our collection in Yunnan in 2006 and one that we could be easily persuaded is actually H. yunnanense or H. forrestii as they look pretty similar but the showy red fruitingdisplay is so spicatum. A fine and hardy garden plant with 30 white flowers per spike with coral highlights.

Heloniopsis orientalis - Dark Double
Easy there, steady yourself - remember to breathe……..you are reading this right - this is a double flowered Heloniopsis of the dark flowered persuasion. Dense heads of tightly packed double flowers of dark pink-lavender makes this very collectible for those who love rare aberrations and isn't that true of most of us?

Heloniopsis orientalis var. flavida 'Snow White'
A very robust selection in one of our favorite genera, this is one we brought in from Japan some while back and at last have some to offer. Wider and longer leaves than other Heloniopsis, making larger evergreen rosettes. Early spring sees the elongation of the flowering stem to 10" and a full head of creamy flowers aging to a clear white.

Broadleaf evergreen from Japan and China that is pretty unigue in having the tiny specks of flowers appear on the midrib of the leaf followed by a black fruit on the female plants. The flower are formed on a modified bit of stem tissue which is part of the leaf midrib. You won't get fruit s this is a guy but great foliage & bronze new growth.

Hepatica acutiloba
Midwestern native Hepatica whose name has been changed to Anemone acutiloba or some prefer Anemone nobilis var. acuta. We cling to Hepatica, kicking and screaming. These are from seed from the unparalleled collection at Ashwood Nurseries and are not wild collected plants.

Hepatica nobilis var. japonica - Pink
These Japanese versions of the European nobilis are ones we have grown from seed and have been hoarding for a few years but since there is no room left in the Hepatica house, we must send a few of our kids out into the world. Each plant varies a bit but all are good pinks and we get to pick.

Hepatica nobilis var. pyrenaicum - pink
We love this variety of nobilis - awesome foliage with very good marbling and equally fine pink flowers in early spring. The whole presentation is exquisite and obviously the result of judicious honing of extraneous elements over the course of untold millenia. Tom Hobbs - put this in your Jewelbox Garden!

Hepatica transsilvanica 'Blue Eyes'
Very choice selection not often available but we have some very nice plants. This has rich blue flowers in profusion during those often grim early spring days. This is an overachiever in the shade garden and often eats lunch alone as no one likes a show off but we do so we feed it cow poop.

Hepatica transsilvanica 'Elison Spence'
These were shared with us by Kelly's mentor and fair to say, hero, Steve Doonan of Grand Ridge Nursery. A superb selection with petaloid stamens giving this a robust doubled appearance. Always hard to come by and much sought after, this will in time make a nice carpet of ostentation.

Hepatica yamatutai - Pink Reverse Form
Often white flowered, this coveted form has white flowers with a striking pink reverse to the backs of the petals. The leaves which follow bloom are impressive in their own right being quite large with rounded leaves and rich purple-maroon undersides. A mature clump of this confers the honorific Hepatica Highness to the owner.
