    This has been the most informative video I've seen in answering a lot of my questions. Living in Bedford, Texas with our wide range of temperature, water and soil issues; it is a challenge to decide on what type of shrub or plant are best for both sun, shade areas. I've enjoy your breakdown and the beautiful landscaping on your property. You are an Artist, let me add to your PowerPoint an "Artist Culturist." Thank you for your time and education with this video.

    We are big fans of Mystic Spires Blue Slavia (zone 7 hardy) here in Central Texas. This is the 4th season we've grown this perennial (~10 of them), and the bumblebees were on them from mid-spring into October this year. There were days where the Mystic Spires bed had 10+ bumblebees at any one time. Truly marvelous to observe.
    My only problem is I can't get them to recover completely after winter. Most of the plants will show new growth by February, but the growth seems to come from the old main stem rather than from the roots. Have a very windy day, and this new growth tends to separate from the old wood (think mushrooms on rotting wood). So, I end up treating them as (expensive) annuals and replacing them in early-to-mid spring.

    Society Garlic smells like something else to me! LOL, I love how it looks, but never buy any because the ride home will leave my whole car smelling like it! Can’t have the teachers bringing my kids to the car at school pickup with it reeking of that society garlic!
    Another EXCELLENT video though!

    I am in Houston Texas. Does this apply for me as well?

      Yes, most of these plants will apply for Houston as well. You just may want to avoid any of the plants that like it very dry.

    So all these plants, do we buy seeds or plant?

      If it is a perennial, get the plant. If it is an annual, plant the seed.
