		<description><![CDATA[Recently I was talking with a nursery employee about plants for containers. She was recommending Sedum ‘Angelica’ as a year-round container plant.

		<description><![CDATA[With the milder winters becoming more and more common in our area, I have become confident that I can try “southern” plants. Southern plants thrive in hot and humid summers but need a mild winter to make it to the next year. They are usually winter hardy to zone 7 or 8, not the uppermost [...]]]></description>

Ever in search of "what's new," I spent several weeks this past autumn talking with representatives from over 20 nurseries to learn about new plant introductions.
