"No Thank You!" Plants (and Gorgeous Alternatives We Love) - Episode 28

from Fostering Blooms · host Shannon Foster-Boline & Caitlyn Blum

Welcome to Fostering Blooms! In this episode, we're sharing our latest round of "No Thank You" plants — the ones we've grown, inherited, or almost bought… but now politely decline. 🙅‍♀️🌿 These aren't plants we hate — okay, maybe one or two — but ones we've learned aren't the right fit for our gardens due to invasiveness, poor pollinator value, maintenance headaches, or just plain overuse. And of course, we're not here to judge — we're here to help you make better planting choices with smarter, more beautiful alternatives. ✨ Grab your tea (or gloves), and get ready to laugh, learn, and maybe rethink that plant sitting in your cart. Let's go grow, baby! SHOW NOTES: Korean Dogwood: Cornus kousa Discover Life in America Autumn Brilliance Serviceberry
