Spigelia marilandica – Indian pink
The Georgia Native Plant Society is bringing back the annual member garden tour for 2016. Member Charles Hunter has agreed to chair this project and we would very much like to hear from you if you can help. This year’s tour will be a little earlier than recent tours, and will take place on Saturday, April 23rd, the week after our plant sale. Our hope is that this will catch a lot of the early Spring ephemerals, trilliums, early native azaleas and other early bloomers.
The gardens for 2016 will be in Cherokee County. There are 3 gardens set for the tour. We’ll need a few volunteers at each garden to help welcome members, direct them to sign in and get them started on the tour itself. The garden owner will be moving among the guests, answering questions and pointing out plants of interest. If you can help, please contact Charles Hunter at (770) 433-8117 or 2csh@bellsouth.net.
Members will be given a description of the gardens and the addresses of them about 2 weeks prior to the tour. If you’re not a member, join today!
