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 fl ower 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 refl exes 

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 benefi t 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 

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

is a small, many-branched perennial with tiny 

aromatic leaves. There are upright and creeping 

varieties. Some creeping varieties will tolerate

Thyme has many uses in the kitchen. It combines 

well with most foods. Flavored varieties 

such as lemon thyme add even more possibilities. 

Upright varieties are more often used 

for culinary purposes than creeping varieties. 

Thyme requires relatively little care once 

planted. Plant it in light, dry, well-drained soil in 

full sun to partial shade. Amending the soil with granite sand will help keep it 

light and well drained. A multi-purpose plant..........4” - $3.00, Gallon - $5.75

Herbs are used to season our food, treat 

our ills, and scent and decorate our homes. 

The grow ing pop u lar i ty 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 main tain. We ad vo cate or gan ic 

methods for grow ing 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 rec om - 

men da tion 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 sce nar i os 

will work. 

FEEDING...Add generous amounts of a 

high quality compost when planting herbs. 

Side dress month ly during the growing season 

with fi sh emulsion and seaweed. 

MULCHING...Mulch will protect roots from 

the heat in the summer, cold in the winter, and 

will in crease water and nutrient retention. Use 

cypress mulch and straw, avoiding pine products 

which are some what acidic.

WHAT IS A PERENNIAL?...Perennials are plants that reappear year after year in 

your garden without having been reseeded or replanted. The heart of your fl ower garden 

may be the unchanging perennials, brightened and interspersed with a yearly change of 

annuals for contrast and variety. You will fi nd that all perennials are low maintenance plants, 

because they require less of your time each year. 

SOIL PREPARATION...Prepare perennial fl ower beds by spading deeply. Loosen up 

heavy clay and clay loam soil with the addition of organic matter, gypsum, sand, ground 

bark or compost. Add a fertilizer designed for perennials and turn the soil over again. Then 

rake it smooth, and the bed will be ready for the plants. Good drainage is essential. Wet, 

sticky soil creates a soil environment in which any plant will fi nd it diffi cult to breathe and 

grow . . . which, therefore, reduces its chances of fl ourishing development and long life. 

PRE-PLANTING CARE...If you buy perennials and cannot plant them the same day, water 

the pots thoroughly, then place them in the shade to prevent excessive wilting. Evening or 

cloudy days are the best times to plant. During the heat of the day or on sunny days, be 

sure plants are watered thoroughly and water immediately after planting. 

HOW TO PLANT... Remove the plant by holding the pot and loosening the plant from the 

container. Push it out; never pull from the top. Set it into the ground so that all the roots are 

well covered and the plant itself is anchored securely in the soil. 

WATERING...Water newly planted perennials thoroughly to give them a good start. Then 

water whenever the soil begins to dry up to one inch per week. Do it early in the day with 

a soaking technique at ground level. Don’t be satisfi ed with just sprinkling the foliage since 

plants will not receive 

enough water. Moisture 

on the foliage for more 

than 24 hours encourages 

plant dis ease. 

AFTER-PLANTING 

CARE...Some perennials 

multiply and grow 

larger as the years go by, 

calling for an occasional 

division to keep them 

healthy. ( You’ll benefi t, 

too, by having twice as 

many plants from your 

garden to share with 

friends!) Others stay very 

much the same in height 

and spread.

State Botanical Garden of Georgia 

One of the most visited spots in Athens, the State 

Botanical Garden covers 300 acres along the Middle 

Oconee River off South Milledge Avenue. Nature 

trails, a variety of specialty gardens, a massive 

glass conservatory, a beautiful chapel and an 

international garden with man-made stream are 

among the garden’s most notable features. 

Tree That Owns Itself 

Actually, it’s the son of the Tree That Owns Itself, 

having been grown from an acorn from the original 

oak, which died in 1942. As the story goes, University 

professor, W. H. Jackson, ouT of his love for 

the tree, gave the oak ownership of itself, through 

a deed that provided eight feet of land on all 

sides of the tree. The Junior Ladies Garden Club 

planted the tree’s heir in 1946. The tree is located 

at the intersection of Dearing and Finley streets, a 

block south of West Broad. 

Founders Memorial Garden 

The 1857 house and its outbuildings on the University 

of Georgia campus, off South Lumpkin 

Street near the School of Environmental Design, 

serve as the headquarters of the Garden Club of 

Georgia. The gardens surrounding the beautifully 

restored and furnished house were designed and 

maintained as a memorial to the founders of America’s 

fi rst garden club, the Ladies Garden Club of 

Athens. The grounds include a scuLpted boxwood 

garden, a sunken formal garden and pool and several 

informal gardens. 

President’s Garden 

Located on the University of Georgia’s North Campus 

near Lustrat House, the garden features annuals, 

perennials and native plants and fl owers. 

University of Georgia Campus Arboretum 

UGA has named its entire campus an arboretum 

and has published a booklet offering three selfguided 

walking tours of trees on campus. The 

North Campus, Central Campus, and South Campus 

walks direct pedestrians to more than 150 

trees that are marked by plaques and numbered 

to correspond with the booklet. Booklets are available 

free throughout the campus.

Prepare the soil with organic matter. 

Organic matter, such as de com posed pieces of leaves, bark and stems are dif fer ent ly shaped and when mixed 

with soil forms air spaces allowing rain and irrigation water to penetrate deeper. The roots will follow the water. 

The normal rec om men da tion is to add 2 inches of organic matter to a fl ower bed each spring. This summer, try at 

least 4 inch es. Composted bark and home grown garden compost are excellent ma te ri als. 

Mulch heavily. 

Un-mulched gardens allow the sun to heat up the soil and hot soil evaporates water quick ly. Wind, if we have 

any, easily removes the water vapor near the soil surface. By putting an extra deep layer of mulch this summer, 

you can reduce the heat that penetrates into the soil and reduce evaporation driven by wind and heat. Newspaper 

can be used to supplement mulch. Using a garden rake pull back your existing mulch. Then dip newspaper 

pages into a bucket of water, and spread it two sheets thick over the ground. Put the mulch back over the newspaper 

to conceal it and hold it in place. The newspaper not only helps hold mois ture in the soil but also adds 

organic matter as it slowly decomposes. When plant ing fl owers, it’s easier to spread the moist ened news pa per 

over the soil before planting. Water sparingly but thoroughly. 

Once mulch is in place, common sense suggests you will need to water less often. A brief sprinkle of rain 

or a pass-over with the garden hose will not wet the soil underneath the mulch. It takes a steady and lengthy 

application of water to thoroughly saturate the soil. If you have pre pared the soil and mulched prop er ly, you will 

need to water only once a week. More garden plants died last summer due to over-watering than from drought. 

The reason is simple. Your prepared soils will dry out very slowly. Roots will respond to slight drying by growing 

deeper. If you water every other night, the soil never dries out and the bedding plants never send out deep roots. 

Re mem ber, ap ply ing two inches of water per square foot will saturate the soil and keep things possibly moist 

for 7 to 10 days, depending on conditions. Irrigation tip: Drip irrigation and soaker hoses are most effi cient 

meth ods of watering land scape ornamental plants than sprinklers. 

Buy or raise drought-tolerant plants. Some of the more popular ones are listed below:

Ferns require a rich, moist soil with good drainage. They 

do not like soggy soil! Also, be careful not to plant them too 

deeply or to fertilize too heavily. Some customers report 

good results with a slow-release fertilizer used at low rates. 

An added bonus, ferns are deer and rabbit resistant!

One of the most rewarding gardens 

�� 

is the butterfl y garden. Designed to 

include plants that both attract adult 

butterfl ies and those that serve as host 

plants to larvae, this garden will give 

four-season interest. 

A butterfl y garden can be a few wellplaced 

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 butterfl ies before they 

lay their egss. Mature plants can be 

added in the Fall for the next season. 

Butterfl y attracting plants include: Buddleia (Butterfl y Bush), Asclepias incarnata and tuberosa 

(Swamp Milkweed and Butterfl y Weed), Echinacea (Purple Conefl ower), 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 butterfl y 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 

Butterfl ies and Butterfl y Gardens. Enjoy!

lant the idea 

and watch it grow 

In our changing world, 

the average gardener 

is no longer average. 

Gardeners can be found 

in urban city apartment 

buildings, suburban 

housing communities 

and in the ever-shrinking rural countryside. Today’s home owners, 

condo members and dorm dwellers have one thread in common—they consider the outside of their 

home as an extension of their home and thus an additional “room” to decorate. Container gardening 

offers variety, color and best of all, mobility to all gardeners, novice and expert. Bringing the idea of 

structure, texture and color to containers allows the gardener to transform small or large spaces into a 

tropical forest, a desert landscape, or a cut-fl ower paradise. 

P L A N T T H E I D E A … i t ’s a s e a s y a s 1 - 2 - 3 . 

The planning of any garden, even a container garden includes choosing the right plants for the environment 

they will be living in and creating a pleasing combination of structure, texture and color. 

(1) First, choose a focal point, the centerpiece if you will, for your planting. Recommendations include 

ornamental grasses, shrubs and conifers, large leafed tropical foliage or uniquely shaped succulents. 

(2) Then choose foliage plants for texture. These can include colorful seasonals like Coleus, Angelwing 

Begonias, Caladiums and Dusty Miller, or trailing foliage like Ivy, Dichondra, Sweet Potato 

Vine or Creeping Wire Vine. Fresh herbs in containers can be attractive and functional. 

(3) The next step is to add fl owering plants for additional color and focus. Warm season containers 

frequently contain Petunias, Million Bells and other long-fl owering seasonals. Cold season containers 

traditionally use Pansies, Violas, or Stock. 

Don’t underestimate the effect of containers. A grouping of containers, including a single-item container 

can be arranged and re-arranged as the seasons progress to highlight different items. Groupings 

of containers at the garden entrance or around focal points such as a large fl owering tree, a bench, 

birdbath or arbor add variety and interest to larger yards. Even fl owering or foliage hanging baskets add 

drama and interest to porches and entrances. 

Now, WATCH IT GROW. Choose a location and get a feel for how sunny or shady it is 

throughout the day. You can choose your pots fi rst or let your plant choices guide your container needs. 

Now, choose the plants. Remember 1-2-3! Choose at least one plant from each group and try to combine 

plants according to light and water requirements. Each container is a mini-environment so you 

can group desert plants in one and tropical foliage in another. Just water the container according to the 

overall needs of its occupants. Containers can be changed out as weather changes in the spring and 

fall. Spring seasonals last through summer’s heat. Fall seasonals will last through winter’s cold.
