Having a garden and caring for plants is a great way to get outdoors. The hours that can be spent caring for your outdoor plants can be relaxing and refreshing. I wanted to learn more and that’s why on this podcast I asked Stephanie O’Neal, the president of the Wisconsin Hardy Plant Society. We talked about what classifies as a hardy plant, some things to think about before you begin planting and why it’s important to think about native plants.
