Here is what happened yesterday.
I bought Shimadaijin TP in the local grocery store yesterday, and while contemplating how to plant it, I googled "Shimadaijin". A couple of pictures (taken by me and posted in the NGA's database) showed up. I know that at least three nurseries used these pics below (the pics were taken by me, but this gorgeous Shimadaijin belongs to my neighbor).
The first nursery I caught using my pictures without informing me was in Ukraine.
The second one was Les Jardines Osiris (Québec).
I called Les Jardine de Osiris to let them know the picture was copyrighted and offered them two options; either to send me one of their Shimadaijins and continue using the picture (my preference) or to remove the picture from the website. Unfortunately, they decided to remove the picture.
I really wanted the plant
Yesterday, I clicked on one of the pictures, which led me to the online nursery that we discussed a couple of months ago. As I recall, I wanted to order some mums and native plants from them. So I called, and guess what? The owner was willing to send me Shimadaijin. Since I don't have room for two Shimadaijins in my (small) garden, I explained that I had bought Shimadaijin several hours ago
So I asked if I could think of something else. The nursery offers only three TPs; I already have two of them, but I don't have the third one - Renkaku.
How big does Renkaku get for you? Please advise. Hope I will be able to find a spot for Renkaku because I've been admiring Renkaku's white flowers for a long time
Here is a pic from our DB:
