Availability of plants is everchanging: 

Due to the diversity of plants that we grow, 

there are always a few plants that don’t get 

listed in the catalog. While browsing our 

retail area you might find some pleasant 

surprises. Also, due to the nature of growing 

plants, not all selections are available at all 

times of the year and many new varieties 

are added throughout the year.

As many northern “transplants” can tell you, gardening in the South is unlike gardening 

anywhere else at all. Heat, humidity, clay, drought and hurricane season can combine into 

a deadly (to your beloved flower beds) force during the summer months. And those lovely 

“mild” winters aren’t so favorable to perennials looking for a long winter’s sleep. So the Southern 

gardener must be especially loyal, hard working and diligent. The Southern gardener requires quick reflexes 

and unbelievable stamina. The Southern gardener should plan carefully, execute in a timely manner and be 

open to all known methods of meditation and prayer! 

Let the beauty begin with the foundation of the garden: the soil. It bears repeating often; get your soil 

tested when planning a new garden or considering new plants. The local Extension Service will be happy to 

help, consider having the soil tested in the fall to avoid the backlog that often occurs in the spring. Correct acidic 

soil by adding limestone (ground or hydrated). Limestone also adds small amounts of phosphorus and potash 

and helps loosen tough clay. Gypsum can be substituted for limestone to loosen clay without affecting the pH 

and will. Organic materials, soil conditioners and compost also help make the soil more fertile and help create a 

workable, well-draining soil. 

Southern gardens are true four-season gardens. There are shrubs, perennials and seasonals available for 

every season of the year. Flowers and fragrance are even found in the winter in Southern gardens with Daphne 

and Edgeworthia or Wintersweet. Consider traditional Southern plants like Hydrangeas, Camellias, Confederate 

Jasmine, Carolina Jessamine, and Hibiscus. Native plants like Virginia Bluebells, May Apple, Solomon’s Seal 

and Wood Poppies are great for cool Southern shade gardens. Tropical looking plants like Tree Ivy, Elephant 

Ears and Hostas love our hot, humid summers. 

Southern gardeners learn that timing is everything. Trees and shrubs benefit from planting in fall, as do 

many perennials and also from natural rainfall. Mild Southern winters mean more choice of varieties for early 

spring planting of perennials. Southern gardeners understand the importance of mulch. Clay heats up slowly 

so wait until the soil has warmed up for seasonal annuals. After the last chance of frost, wait for a good rain, 

then mulch heavily. And like the shampoo bottle says, “Mulch and repeat”. Keep the weeds away, the soil 

temperatures cool, and the moisture retained by keeping your garden well-mulched. 

Don't forget to feed - plants are like people and want to eat, too, so use a recommended slow release food 

or organic to wash in after every rain or watering. Everything needs nutrition to thrive. We recommend you do 

this in spring and again in early summer before the heat and dry season begins. 

Finally, there’s one more rule to Southern gardening. Like any Southern Belle will tell you, “It’s a lady’s right 

to change her mind.” And this applies to any Southern gardener, lady or man. If the plant doesn’t seem happy 

where it is, move it. Keep in mind the stress involved in a move (haven’t we all been there!) and treat it gently, 

but move it to a possibly more suitable locale. In the South, it’s all about listening to your instincts and being 

flexible. Enjoy the year-long delights of gardening in the South and ya’ll come by real soon, hear?

Yes, you can grow your own garlic!! Yum! Plant this culinary favorite 

in well drained fertile soil and be sure to add lime a month or so before 

planting to bring the pH up to 6.0 +. Ideally, it is best to plant in autumn 

to get a winter cooling period for a good harvest in spring. Bulbs can be 

planted in early spring and still get a good harvest but the cloves tend to 

be a bit smaller for not having had the winter cooling period (a trick is to 

keep the bulbs in a cold dry place before planting to convince the bulb it has 

received the proper temperatures). Choose the biggest and fattest cloves to 

sow and plant with the root end down and the pointed end up about 1” deep 

in the soil, plant 4” apart. Plants are ready to harvest after the foliage has 

died off. Wash blubs and leave to dry for a week or so. Store in a cool dry 

place. A great ingredient in cooking and a must in your summer pesto..........

SPANISH LAVENDER................................................... Lavender stoechas 

Spanish lavender was named for the Island of Hyeres in the 

Mediterranean, where the species was commonly found. It is believed

essential oils. Lavender stoechas is an easy to grow variety that prefers full 

sun and well drained gravely, rocky soils that are more alkaline. Be sure to 

add lime to the soil when planting in Georgia to counteract our acidic soils. 

There seems to be some confusion as to what is a French vs. a Spanish 

lavender for in the UK they call L. stoechas French lavender while in the 

US we call L. stoechas Spanish lavender and in Australia they call it Italian 

lavender. So which one is it?? We have an easy way to decipher the puzzle, 

L. stoechas has a distinctively different type of flower from the typical 

lavender bloom, that we call Rabbit Ears or Butterfly Wings and they often 

come in various colors.

Herbs are used to season our food, treat our 

ills, and scent and decorate our homes. The 

growing popularity of herb gardening is due 

not only to their many and varied uses, but 

also to the fact that herbs are easy to grow and 

maintain. We advocate organic methods for 

growing herbs to produce lush foliage with high 

oil content, resistant to pests and diseases. 

DRAINAGE...Choose a location that is very 

well drained. After a heavy rain, water should 

not be standing. Many times gardeners will 

raise the soil level adding top soil,compost. 

and gravel sand for percolation. 

SUNLIGHT...In the Southeast a 

recommendation of “sun” or “full sun” may 

only mean 5-6 hours of direct sunlight daily. 

Generally, herbs would prefer morning sun and 

afternoon shade, although many scenarios will 

work. 

FEEDING...Add generous amounts of a high 

quality compost when planting herbs. Side 

dress monthly during the growing season with 

fish emulsion and seaweed. 

MULCHING...Mulch will protect roots from 

the heat in the summer, cold in the winter, 

and will increase water and nutrient retention. 

Use cypress mulch and straw, avoiding pine 

products which are somewhat acidic.

season and small fruits appear in mid summer, first green then turning 

orange. Reseeds readily so be sure to clean up those oranges in the fall.

One of the most rewarding gardens is the butterfly 

garden. Designed to include plants that both attract 

adult butterflies and those that serve as host plants to 

larvae, this garden will give four-season interest. 

A butterfly garden can be a few well-placed 

containers in a sunny location, or entire acres of plants. 

Just choose a full sun spot and dig in. First plant 

young, nectar producting plants early in the Spring to 

attract butterflies before they lay their egss. Mature 

plants can be added in the Fall for the next season. 

Butterfly attracting plants include: Buddleia 

(Butterfly Bush), Asclepias incarnata and tuberosa 

(Swamp Milkweed and Butterfly Weed), Echinacea 

(Purple Coneflower), Rudbeckia (Black-eyed Susan), 

Liatris (Blazing Star), Lantana, Asters, Eupatorium 

(Joe-Pye Weed), Marigolds, Zinnias, Azaleas, 

Sambuscus (Elderberry) and Clethra Summersweet). 

To feed your larvae once the eggs have hatched 

be sure to have some of the following on hand: 

Asclepias currassavica (Milkweed), Bronze Fennel, 

Cassia (Wild Senna), and Paw Paw. 

Also, be sure to include a water and mineral 

source in your butterfly garden. Dishes of wet sand or 

soil will provide the necessary nutrients and moisture. 

Of course, specially made dishes and feeders and 

mineral mixes are available at various garden centers 

and home improvement stores. 

Many sources are available at your local library or on 

the World Wide Web for more information on Butterflies 

and Butterfly Gardens. Enjoy!
