Week 1
10:30 AM - Seminar
“Beyond the Best Sellers: Underused Plants That Deserve A Spot” with Kerry Pieritz from Bailey Nurseries
Great gardens aren’t built from trends alone—they’re built from plants that truly belong. This seminar shines a light on 12 underutilized perennials and shrubs that bring depth, resilience, and quiet beauty to Midwest landscapes, yet are often overlooked in favor of familiar standbys. You’ll learn why these overlooked plants succeed, where they fit best in real garden situations, and how to confidently incorporate them into existing landscapes. If you’re ready to move beyond the familiar and discover plants that bring durability, diversity, and long-term value to the garden, this session will give you fresh ideas you can put to use right away.
8:30 AM & 12:30 PM – Greenhouse Tours
