Chris Wiesinger is the owner of The Southern Bulb Company (https://www.southernbulbs.com/) in Golden, Texas and co-author of The Bulb Hunter.
In this episode, we have a really fun conversation with Chris about how he got interested in bulbs, the journey of how his name evolved from The Bulb Boy to The Bulb Hunter after being featured in a New York Times article, and how important native, perennial bulbs are to the southern ecosystems. He talks about his experience hunting for bulbs and sharing the love of perennial bulbs through his company. Chris and the team at The Sourthern Bulb Company seek to "recapture something that was once 'lost' to the Southern gardener: bulbs that thrive in warm climates, many of which are heirloom and rare flower bulbs."
We hope you enjoy our conversation with Chris as much as we did!
