Plants the MAINSTREAM Garden Centers Won't Sell You!

I want to show you 10 perennials you're not likely to see in the big garden centers - and not because they're poor performers. I think they're all wonderful! Some are a little obscure, hard-to-explain, hard to find in the wholesale trade, or have a reputation for spreading that keeps the big box stores from stocking them. You may have better luck finding some of these in a more specialty garden store, but even if you can't, I'll tell you in this video where to find them. Spoilers: I think 6 or 7 of the ten plants I started originally from seeds I bought at Jelitto: www.jelitto.com They're not sponsoring me - I've just always liked their assortment.

If you find these videos useful, here are a few things you can do to help us out:
