I'm a big fan of Jay's from his articles on Houzz; what a great conversation this was! I love his perspective on what makes a great garden - art, magic, story, and horticulture. Ideas to garden by! Thank you for a great interview, Fine Gardening.

So true that there is very little information on roots. Someone should write a book on ROOTS, individual families & their root styles, depths, how competitive, how vigorous, etc. This would also be helpful for deciding which shape & size of container to use when potting. Someone, PLEASE, compile some good information. Maybe one of the Universities? I am always searching for this information, & agree with Jay - very little info, & often contradicting.
