ANNUAL PLANT FAIR AND SALE AT CALLAWAY GARDENS®

Head to Callaway Gardens® with a plant list and a vehicle with enough room to take home all of the great finds at the Callaway Gardens® Plant Fair and Sale, March 27-30, 2008.

Choose from garden-related items and a wide array of flowering plants and shrubs, including many unique, hard-to-find varieties and native plants that thrive in the Southeast, often in challenging weather conditions.

Those participating include: Chattahoochee Valley Day Lily Society; Eagle’s Roost Herb Farm; Kombi Tools Inc.; Laurel Springs Nursery; Lewis Simmons Designs; Garden Delights; Granny’s Old Bloomers; Massee Lane Camellia Gardens; McMahon Nursery; Our Secret Garden; Petals from the Past; Rocky Branch Nursery; Sun Coast Orchids; The House of Bonsai and Wade’s Metal Works.
