This place is listed for it by the RHS Plant Finder web site. http://apps.rhs.org.uk/rhsplantfinder/nurseryfinder3.asp?ID=1954&so=pf
Several scientific sources including some of the Kew's sites and the USDA list Sternbergia colchiciflora Waldst. & Kit. as an endangered species. This could be very difficult to obtain legally.
Thank you, I would like to get it legaly.It grows few peces in slovakia, but I think there is some way botanists can render it from seed to botanical gardens.I love nature much. my main interest is to grow fruits, which can be eaten just from bush or tree in garden. today I just have got such plant of sweet hipophae ,I am very glad from it. Thank you for informing me! if you have still somethink to say, write rather on e-mail: nokal1@seznam.cz.Good Year 2010!Jan
Now it sounds like you are, in fact asking about Shepherdia rather than Sternbergia. You used both genus names in your original post.
excuse me of course stepherdia is colchiciflora. Stepherdia is very comon plant. I found twoo possibilities where to look it in nurseries and I send there question if they are able to deliver it to me, I am weiting for answer.If I can give here some picture I will give it.I can give it only by e-mail. some species of sternbergia you can see here:http://www.amaryllidaceae.org/Sternbergia/index.htm Jan
