Yes, VRM, good question. Considering how often I see it mentioned in my readings, I would expect it would be a lot more commonly available than it seems to be.

I did find plants available online at Forest Farm for $8 each and I suppose one could buy some of those and nurse them along for a few years, dividing as you go.

I wonder what the deal is on these. Let's hope someone who knows more than we do can answer this.

I got mine quite a few years ago from Bluebird in Nebraska. I forget what it cost but it was a wholesale price. I really like the stuff.

I saw some yellow Solidaster plants for sale at $5.95 each at sequimrareplants.com. You might check out their site.
