Darwin Perennials and Walters Garden have introduced many new plants over the last several years – many of them national award winners and trial garden stand-outs. But the foggy blur of new introduction season is real; your greenhouse may be missing the boat on many new varieties that can revive your perennial business.
To help you focus and pinpoint the best-performing, most-exciting perennials for this coming spring, summer and fall, join Darren Barshaw of Darwin Perennials and Kata Kress Wallace of Walters Gardens for a free webinar, Thursday, January 26, 2023, as they discuss “30 Perennials You Are Missing in 2023 (and why you should grow them)”.
Meet the speakers:
