Since there have been a couple of posts on this topic, let me give a plug 
to another good DC-area source for native plants: Nature by Design, at 300 
Calvert Ave. in Alexandria (http://www.nature-by-design.com).  

Previously a vendor at a number of the local native plant sales, this year 
they opened a full-time nursery.  It's small but has a nice selection, and 
they are in the process of expanding a bit--another trip over there is on 
my list of things to do this weekend.  

The native honeysuckle I got from them has been quite popular with the 
local hummers.  I don't know if they have pokeweed, but I've got plenty to 
spare without paying for it!
