THANK YOU for Coming!!!!!!!! We had a great turn out and most of our plants found new homes. Our GCMGA Pass Along Plant Sale was held on Saturday, April 30, 2022 from 9AM-2:PM. We’ll had a wide variety of perennials (flowers, shrubs, trees) with many native plants included from our own gardens plus vegetables and herbs. In addition to hundreds of plants to choose from and lots of Master Gardeners on hand for suggestions and advice, Soil3 was present as well as members of Georgia Native Plant Society. The Garden Art booth had lots of fun items to decorate your garden plus inexpensive garden books. Related Images:

These are trees with historical and horticultural significance, and trees on public and private land.
