Ooh! That’s exciting! At my Costco this weekend, they were selling dwarf burning bush š 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: Iād be concerned about treatments that make the plants look nice but kill the creatures theyāre 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.
Itās a good sign for sure about consumer sentiment. Iāll take cultivars and things outside native ranges over invasives any day of the week.
Love to see it. Itās so wild to me that you can go to Loweās and Home Depot and not see a single native.Ā
Iām in trouble
Wowww Samās club would never
Ohh two of the things I love the most, native plants and Costco!
Has anyone seen these on the east coast?
I’m going to have to check my Costco. I can always use some more butterfly milkweed
Note to selfā¦.go to my local Costco tomorrow morningš¬š¬š¬
Jealous! My Costco has just had poorly labeled annuals. Most don’t even say what the plant is.
This is great to see! Natives going mainstream!!
I guess Im Making a trip to Costco
Would love to know if this happens to be the Toledo or Perrysburg location?
G-d bless Costco
Wow, thatās great. Which Costco? I might be willing to make a drive down to Toledo areaā¦
Delighted to see this!
Couldn’t be my warehouse. They’re selling the same pointless plants they have out every year š
