Sad to say, but the 2010 Southeastern Flower Show, which has always been a premiere gardening event here in Atlanta, has been downsized--like the rest of the economy, I supposed. The show has been cut back to just three days this year, Feb. 4 - 6. Advance purchase tickets are $15, although there are discounts for seniors, twilight admission, and other categories.
I'll be curious to hear the presentation on a sensory garden that's scheduled for Saturday; it promises to tell you how to plant for touch, scent, sight, taste, and fragrance. And I'm hoping to see the one on "chickens in the garden"--sounds kinda fun, although I don't foresee adding any hens or roosters to my too-close-to-the-city spaces anytime soon!
