Hi, I am Teresa from Songbird Gardens. I live in Kentucky and have loved plants all of my life. I have always focused on perennials but would like to branch out. Some of my earliest memories was the dining room table at my Granny's house that was covered in beautiful blooming AVs. She had quite the collection.

I need to know basic info. Do you plant in a AV potting mix? How often do you fertilize? Special pots?
Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
