They are actually called Firecracker Ferns.

Try Fairfield Farms up 301 or KB Home and Garden in Wildwood.

We recently shopped for a coral honeysuckle plant. A phone call to KB had a disconnected message, and a call to Fairfield Farms, we were greeted with a "please leave a message " recording. I'm not interested in chasing down a supplier to buy a plant. We ordered online. Tried to buy local, but it didn't work out.

Try the Marion Market. We bought 2 small ones this past weekend. Very inexpensive.

It is frustrating but buying online is tricky other than seeds. The Plant Sale is this weekend at the sumner County Fairgrounds. You’ll have plenty of plants to choose from that are healthy and come from qualified garden centers,

Yes

I would just point out that Amazon has 14 reviews averaging 4.7 out of 5 for their firecracker plants purchased online.

Amazon has killed a lot of local jobs and a lot of local retail selection.

Probably. I rarely go to Lowes or Home Depot anymore. Everything they sell is available from Amazon within a day or two, usually at a lower price. I think the only reason those stores stay in business is because people have a habit of going to a store. It is interesting that Lowes, Home Depot, and other stores compete with their own "brick and mortar" stores by offering online orders.
