When we say "foundation plants" you might think we're talking about plants that are the backbones of our beds and borders. But that's not what we mean in this instance. Today we're discussing plants that are perfect for planting around your home's foundation.

So, if you're sick of looking at that ugly 2-foot expanse of concrete at the foot of your home listen up, because we're going to help you cover it up in style.    Expert: Lifelong horticulturist Tony Fulmer is the retired chief horticulture officer for Chalet, a specialty nursery in Wilmette, Illinois.
