For more info go to www.losthorizons.ca - Page 14 Welcome to the 2015 Catalogue We are very glad to see the back end of 2014, an anus horribilis as the Queen might say. We were badly hit by the ice storm, and were without power for a week. The weight of the ice caused a massive amount of damage to trees and shrubs in the garden and nursery. Even large trees came down causing damage to several growing houses. We took over eighty truckloads of debris from around the house and nursery and there is still much to be done. Clients also had damage so it was a very busy season just trying to stay on top of it all. Gardens that had been shade gardens were then sun gardens and needed to be replanted. Even in the nursery, shade areas under fallen willows were gone and plants needed to be reorganized and even in December we were rebuilding houses in the last dash down to the wire before the cold set in. Despite this, with a lot of effort from staff the nursery ended up in good shape and sales were up for the year so we are optimistic about spring. As I am sorting through photos for the website now in the depth of winter I am always shocked how lush, green, and vibrant the garden and nursery look during the growing season. In the dead of winter it really does look like it's an illusion. As usual there are several hundred new plants. These range from rare hardy orchids, exciting new grasses, the latest perennial hybrids, and some old garden favourites returning. Larry Davidson - 15 For More info go to www.LostHorizons.ca - GREAT PLANTS/WONDERFUL PEOPLE We would like to thank those people who have very generously provided us with plants, bulbs, seeds, and cuttings. They have greatly helped to expand the quality and diversity of the nursery. Among those we would like to thank are Kirk Zufelt, Marion Jarvie, Barrie Porteous, Elizabeth Knowles, Paul Ehnes, Anna Leggat, Roger Inglis, and Merle Burston. I don’t think it is any coincidence that these are some of the best gardeners in this part of the world. We are always looking for new plants and if you have something you think we would be interested in, please let us know. NOMENCLATURAL NOTES We are doing our best to keep abreast of the changes in the internationally recognized nomenclature, and to help us in this regard our primary reference has been the RHS Plant Finder (2011 - 2012). We have always presumed a high level of sophistication in our readers and so have never bothered to explain conventional terms like genus, species (sp.), variety (v.), subspecies (ssp.), forma (f.), affinis (aff.) and cultivar (cv.). The breeding of trademarked plants, however, has introduced a potential redundancy into their naming. We give two examples, as they appear in our catalogue, to illustrate a couple of points: Heuchera Crème Brûlé [‘Tnheu041’] and Echinacea Orange Meadowbrite [‘Art’s Pride’]. In the first example Crème Brûlé is the trademarked name and the cultivar name appears in square brackets and is enclosed in the conventional single quotes. In this case it is unlikely that anyone will come into the nursery asking for this plant by its cultivar name but we have included it for completeness of information. In the second example, both the trademarked name, Orange Meadowbrite, and the cultivar name, ‘Art’s Pride’ are used with roughly equal frequency in the horticultural trade. As a consequence it has become imperative for us to print both names, arbitrarily assigning one a lower status as indicated by the square brackets. Square brackets have also been used to convey supplemental information to the name. It may indicate the geographical source as with [Amur River Basin], the parentage such as [dumosus hybrid] or it may acknowledge the donor like [John’s]. It may be descriptive with respect to the form ([Std.] for example refers to a Standard form), it could provide a synonymous or obsolete name, [Cimicifuga] being an example or it may be a literal translation for a plant originally named in another language, most frequently German, French, Japanese or Chinese as in [Bronze Elegance]. - 16 For More info go to www.LostHorizons.ca - SOME HISTORY Lost Horizons started out as a garden design and construction company several years ago, but we soon ran into trouble finding the perennials we wanted to use in our landscapes. One thing led to another, and we began sowing seeds and dividing plants. We are continually searching for and trying new plants; indeed, it sometimes seems an obsession (is there a need for Seedaholics Anonymous?). The plants offered by Lost Horizons range from old cottage garden favourites to delicate alpines. A few horticultural thugs are listed — unmasked — but even they serve as useful groundcovers in restricted situations. The range of difficulty runs from easy to difficult (but not impossible). Gardeners tend to move from easier plants to everincreasing challenges. Gardening can certainly be an intellectual as well as a physical challenge. There may be temporary setbacks, but they double our resolve to try again — in a different spot, in different soil. All of this brings to mind the saying “Been there, killed that”! Joseph Haldas takes the view that it wasn’t the plant, which caused difficulty, but rather the ability of the gardener. Plants come and go; some overstep their boundaries, some completely surprise us. Of all features of a garden, foliage is one of the most significant; the interplay of sizes, forms, textures, and colours creates much of the magic while flowers bloom and fade, providing fleeting highlights to this background. Perhaps the best thing about gardening is that it is an ever-changing, never-ending process. Lost Horizons has extensive gardens, which are open for visiting. We welcome you to take this opportunity for viewing established examples of new and unusual varieties. You are also free to wander through the trial beds in order to see the most recent, developing plants. A note about the name.... “Lost Horizons” is derived from the Frank Capra film, which held me spellbound as a child. Everything thrived in that luxuriant paradise hidden high in the mountains, far from the stress of the world. We hope that, with the assistance of Lost Horizons, you can create your own Shangri-la. We love to find new plants, we love to grow plants, we love to propagate plants, we love to sell plants. Almost everything is now container grown. We are using a coarse, heavy mix to grow in; our experience is that it produces a coarser root system and therefore develops a better plant for transplanting. In a peat mix, one ends up with a solid block of very fine roots. This can lead to problems, especially if the plant is placed in a clay soil; the roots tend to drown or to dry into an impervious lump. We guarantee our plants to be true to name and to leave here in good condition. If you have a problem shortly after picking up your plants we are willing to discuss it but it is your responsibility to provide the conditions they require. Even drought tolerant plants need adequate moisture until they are established. - 17 For More info go to www.LostHorizons.ca - AVAILABILITY We cannot guarantee to have all of the plants listed at all times. We are not a huge operation, and many of these plants are in short supply. We have no control over losses due to weather conditions. We will not substitute plants unless you indicate on the order form that you would like us to do so. If you are looking for a certain plant, please let us know. We have many other plants in too small numbers to list. Plant sizes: The first set of numbers is the mature height; the second set indicates the mature width. Prices at the nursery may vary from prices in the catalogue, since the plants may be of different sizes. If you want catalogue prices, please put in an order. Any order not picked up will be charged 25%. It takes a lot of time and effort to process and pull the order. RECYCLE We hate spending money buying pots when so many are languishing in people’s garages and in landfill sites. Please continue to return our pots, along with any others, but only in the sizes that we use. (i.e. 11 cm., 15 cm. and 1 gal.) It is greatly appreciated. We do not want annual cell packs or hanging baskets. It is also helpful if you bring trays or boxes to carry home your purchases in. LOCATION Lost Horizons is easy to find. We are located on Highway 7, two miles west of Acton, on the south side. From the 401, take Highway 25 north and go west on Highway 7. Our mailing address is R.R. 1, Acton, ON, L7J 2L7. The emergency number is 5654. - 18 For More info go to www.LostHorizons.ca - HOURS We are open Wednesday to Sunday from May (weather permitting) until October, and from then on check by telephone. Hours are: 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Phone (519) 853-3085 Fax (519) 843-2279 Web: www.losthorizons.ca NOTE ON HARDINESS I find it frustrating that the same plants are often listed in different reference materials with a wide range of hardiness zones. When asking around in the trade, I’ve found that most hardiness levels seem to be assigned essentially on hearsay, with little scientific evaluation. In this catalogue, many plants are listed as Zone 5 because we are able to grow them here, but a good number of them are probably much hardier than listed. Many factors influence hardiness. One of the most important is snow cover. Because snow (especially dry snow) traps so much air, it is an excellent insulator. A friend who gardens considerably north of here grows things with which I’ve had difficulty, because he has deep, reliable snow cover, while here the winter snow is anything but reliable. Quite often it is the recurrent early spring thaws that leave a plant exposed and weakened. Once established, plants seem to be hardier, but mulching around them will aid in protecting the roots from this rollercoaster ride. Mulch placed in fall can help catch snow, providing more insulation. It also has year-round benefits: water retention, weed control, and protection from the baking sun. Another factor in plant survival is soil moisture. Some plants, especially those from intercontinental areas, survive much better in well-drained soils where excess moisture can drain away. Similarly, we have found many bog plants will grow in very moist to wet soils but don’t survive being frozen to -20 degree C. The same plants often survive fine in a drier winter soil. So don’t be put off by the zone listings in this catalogue; they are only very general guidelines. If you grow any of these plants in lower hardiness zones, we would be happy to hear from you so that we may provide more accurate information. Thanks.

Are you looking for a garden with mystery and resonance? We specialize in designing and building gardens that are a sophisticated, rich mix of a wide variety of perennials, grasses, ferns shrubs and woody plants. We design gardens with a strong framework and balanced, harmonious layers that provide year round interest. Rock, garden structures, and woody plants represent the primary structural elements. while herbaceous perennials, ferns and ornamental grasses provide constant change from their emergence in spring, through the various flowering periods, to their fall colour and seed heads. We also specialize in reconstructing or refurbishing existing gardens. Many of our past projects had been originally designed by Landscape Architects or other horticultural ‘professionals’ and may (or may not) have had a good structure. However the original designers or installers may have lacked either the knowledge of, or the access to a diverse variety of plants. Our main strength lies in evaluating and addressing such deficiencies in order to create an ever changing, four seasons, magical environment. UNDERSTANDING THE CATALOGUE The number after the description is the size of pot that the plant comes in. In the bottom line – the first is the plant family and second is where the plant originated. Then comes the zone hardiness number and the last numbers are the height x the widh of the plant at maturity in the garden. - 20 For More info go to www.LostHorizons.ca - REFERENCES Our plant descriptions are a start, but we highly recommend the following books for more in-depth information: Perennials Herbaceous Perennial Plants — Alan Armitage The Gardener’s Encyclopedia of Plants and Flowers — edited by Christopher Brickell Perennials for American Gardens — R.
