There is often a reason for their common names, and this one certainly lives up to it! I finally tracked down M. Raspberry Wine at Sunnyside Nursery in MVille. I don't think I've ever been to that particular nursery, which is laid out rather interesting - the perennials are on tables according to height and specific requirements - short bee/butterfly plants, medium drought tolerant, etc. Made it a bit of a guessing game trying to figure out where I might find my specific plants, but there were plenty of friendly workers to point me in the right direction. I think I prefer nurseries that set out sunny perennials alphabetically, much easier to see if they do or do not have what's on my list. But a pleasant foray nevertheless. Hoping this one is more disease resistant, and I absolutely love the bloom color.
