Curt and I took a trip over to Chapel Hill a couple of days ago using back roads. We came across Niche Gardens. I'd heard about the place before and was curious.
What a neat nursery. It's not huge, but (as the name implies) there are a lot of interesting choices. We think that they must propagate much of their own stock since there is great variety, but only a handful of each type (ie several different hosta, but only two or three of each species). Of course, maybe it's just a sign that we are coming to the end of the season.
In any case, the plant life looks really vibrant and well-tended. It must be a satisfying place to work.
They also have a bunch of cool garden art that's mostly fairly affordable. So, if you're ever in the area we recommend checking the place out.
