Great shrubs: So many shrubs, so little time. I'm kidding, sort of, but I think shrubs are a gardener's best investment, and were the topic of conversation with long-time plant hunter and plant breeder Tim Wood, of wholesale Spring Meadow Nursery.

He visited my public-radio show and podcast to talk shrubs: what's new, what's coming next, and what's going out of favor and why—new barberries that don’t seed and become invasive; better viburnums maybe that resist the leaf beetle, and more.
