Gardening In Georgia

Sep 13, 2019, 15:46 PM

Georgia gardeners enjoy lengthy growing seasons, thanks to our warm climate, but did you know fall is the best time to plant in our area?  Warm soil temperatures and cooler days are ideal for new plants to establish healthy root systems before winter sets in.  And, whether your garden grows in pots on the patio, or spreads out across your yard, the Fall Atlanta Home Show is the perfect place to gather ideas and talk to the experts.

This year, for the first time, the Show will feature the UGA Extension Plant Market, where you can buy plants provided by Athens Wholesale Nursery.  Adjacent to the market will be the Ask a Master Gardener booth, staffed by gardening experts eager to answer your questions and share their horticulture knowledge.  Be sure to check out the Outdoor Oasis and other outdoor living and landscape exhibits at the Show, too, and bring your camera to record plant combinations you might want to try at home.
