As horticulturist and author Jennifer Benner discusses in her article on fast fillers, we all have problem areas in the garden. Sometimes it’s a plant that was victim to a passing pest, a spot that was once filled with a spring bloomer, or a new plant that didn’t live up to expectations. Either way, you likely want to fill that hole it left behind, and quick.
“Failing plants are just a routine part of gardening and an excellent excuse to go shopping. To salvage the season and plug those garden holes, reach for plants that are long lasting and quick to mature.”
