The Southern Garden Tour took place in the first full week of June. This year the event included open houses at Young's Plant Farm in Auburn, AL on June 7; the University of Georgia in Athens, GA on June 8; and Metrolina Greenhouses in Huntersville, NC on June 9.
I visited the trials at Metrolina where PanAmerican Seed products were looking fantastic. I also toured Young's Plant Farm, which was celebrating 10 years of their Trial Garden this year!
Take a look at the photos below to see each plant's Southern performance week 23.
