One plant that continues to hold my interest season to season is the native Virginia Willow. As gardeners have become more environmentally conscious, they're employing more environmentally sound principles in the landscape.

The plant pallette has also changed slightly to include more pollinator-friendly plants. The Virginia Willow is one of the more popular native shrubs and interest in it has increased with the use of the Henry's Garnet variety of Virginia Willow. This willow also happens to be part of the LSU AgCenter Super Plant program.
