Description

Today’s garden can have the feel of a space race. Breeders and growers are, by and large, chasing the next “best thing” to the detriment of some really great, older varieties. Too often intellectual property becomes paramount to creative, ground breaking plant development and as a result timeless plants can be lost in the shuffle. In this conversation we will delve into some of the great plants of yesteryear that have unfortunately all but disappeared from the trade.
