Spotted at Costco


Spotted these beauties on my way out of Costco today. I was pretty excited to see these in a big box store. NW Ohio, USA

    Ooh! That’s exciting! At my Costco this weekend, they were selling dwarf burning bush 🙁 I loudly told my partner while a couple was looking at the burning bush, “Oh wow – that’s invasive. I wonder why they’re selling it?” I have no shame…

    WOW. I recognize my spirit plant, lanceleaf coreopsis. What else were they selling?

    I want this to be unadulterated good news, but: I’d be concerned about treatments that make the plants look nice but kill the creatures they’re meant to attract.

    * *Asclepsias tuberosa* (butterfly milkweed)
    * *Agastache rupestris* (threadleaf giant hyssop)
    * *Gaura (Oenothera) lindheimeri* (Lindheimer’s beeblossom)
    * *Echinacea purpurea* (purple coneflower) – in three colors
    * *Coreopsis lanceolata* (lanceleaf tickseed)
    * *Achillea millefolium* (yarrow)

    There’s another yellow flowered plant but the label is folded over.

    It’s a good sign for sure about consumer sentiment. I’ll take cultivars and things outside native ranges over invasives any day of the week.

    Love to see it. It’s so wild to me that you can go to Lowe’s and Home Depot and not see a single native.

    I’m going to have to check my Costco. I can always use some more butterfly milkweed

    Jealous! My Costco has just had poorly labeled annuals. Most don’t even say what the plant is.

    Would love to know if this happens to be the Toledo or Perrysburg location?

    Wow, that’s great. Which Costco? I might be willing to make a drive down to Toledo area…

    Couldn’t be my warehouse. They’re selling the same pointless plants they have out every year 😭
