  • Question

    Hello - I am on the hunt for linnaea borealis (twinflower) to grow in my shady back yard in Albany, NY. I have not had any luck hunting it down! Do you know somewhere I could get it or a nursery I could call? I named my 4 month old daughter after the plant and would really like to grow it. Thanks for any advice. -Sandra

    Answer

    Dear Sandra, Linnaea borealis has been grown in the Garden's nursery in the past, but is no longer being offered. You might try Hillside Nursery: http://www.hillsidenursery.biz/ . Best wishes.
