    Plant Delights Nursery is an award-winning nursery in Raleigh, NC near Garner. We specialize in rare, and unusual perennials and we strive to carry a wide selection of exotic plants, cold hardy tropical plants, and native plants. Many of our best perennials are available nowhere else in the US as they represent rare plants collected by Plant Delights founder Tony Avent during his more than 60 plant hunting expeditions to places like China, Crete, Taiwan, South Africa and Argentina or distributed by some of the many specialty plant organizations of which Plant Delights is a member.

    Love my tongue ferns. They breezed through the winter. Wouldn’t have tried them if not for Plant Delights.

    Always good to see some natives getting mentioned. I really want to get some Green-and-Gold in the yard this year.

      We are offering two varieties this year, Chrysogonum is an excellent groundcover for shade. www.plantdelights.com/collections/chrysogonum

    How timely 😊 I was just considering replacing a dead evergreen shrub (zapped by Christmas blast) with perennials.

    Can you do a video on what you have for zone 6a, Michigan?

    • @Plantdelights
      @Plantdelights  Рік тому

      We have many plants in the garden that are hardy in Zone 6a, but we tend to focus on Zone 7b for the local visitors to our garden. We always recommend visiting your local botanical garden to see what grows well in your zone. You can filter plants by your Zone on our website: www.plantdelights.com/collections/zone-6-plants

      In a pot or container of some kind!

      Bamboo comes in two types: clumping and running. Clumping bamboos don't run.

    I love european wild ginger but it's very hard to find. Maybe because it's so slow growing?

    • @Plantdelights
      @Plantdelights  Рік тому

      I just checked and we should have Asarum europaeum in stock soon. Last time we offered them was 10 years ago, so yes, they are quite slow growing.
