Have you ever wished that Santa shopped exclusively at the nursery? Us too. On this special holiday edition of the LAAP podcast, we’re talking about which plants (and miscellaneous garden items—think piles of self-spreading mulch) are on our wish list for next year.

Expert: Jared Barnes, assistant professor of horticulture at Stephen F. Austin State University in Nacogdoches, TX.
