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.

Really great to see all the natives given some limelight.

Logan is very passionate about native plants and always includes them in his talks. We are grateful to have this brilliant young man on our team!

Wonderful plant suggestions for my garden.

I love your hat. I have the same one!

Love garden walks with a truly knowledgeable guide. It would be so helpful if you could give the growing zones for each plant discussed, for those of us up north.

[@Plantdelights]

Hello! We appreciate the suggestion and we want our videos to be useful to the broad audience of gardeners. We will consider adding planting zones to the scientific descriptions in post. Thank you and happy gardening!

I’ve never heard Maianthemum racemosum called Solomon’s plume. Here in Washington we just call it false Solomon’s seal. I much prefer Solomon’s plume. That’s a perfect name and avoids the “false” designation, which always sounds somewhat negative to me, like the plant is the knockoff or bootleg version of the real thing
