Hey everyone, it's Bailey and I'm in the cold storage room for the perennials today and I wanted to show you a few perennials that we sell. Here's the root, see that budding out right there? It's ready to be planted. That's wild ginger and I'll put a picture right after this. Here is our milkweed. Now we got them in bundles of 100 because we usually sell a whole lot at a time. And look at them big pretty roots, ain't them pretty? Freshly dug too, them was dug about 2 weeks ago, and I'll put a picture right after this. And here's another favorite. Look at this, and it's ready to be planted too. This is butterfly weed, and you can't get much better than butterfly— what? No, that's a, that's a daffodil. See them daffodils coming up? Somebody's accidentally thrown it in the butterfly weed. But here's a butterfly weed right here. These are a pollinator's favorite. Since I done did that, I got to show you the daffodils. Look, there's the roots, and look, they're, they're ready to be planted too. Now these are already blooming in Tennessee. And here are some Dutchman Bridges, and see these? And look, they got little buds all over them ready to come out. Dutchman Bridges is hard to find. I think we're like the only carrier of it. Here's some goat's beard. Not many people know about goat's beard, but it's in a whole lot of landscapes that when they fool with native flowers— oh, that's one right there, look at that good grapefruit root! And that'll put out 1, 2, 3, 4— that'll put out about 4 flower spikes. Goat's beard's beautiful. Here is some Virginia bluebell. Now look at that, that's ready to rumble.
