A HUGE Thank You to Our SE Auction Donors!

By Sandra Horn

The generosity of our donors enable the grants to our Reference Gardens that support the growth and improvement of their conifer collections. All money raised from the auction of the plants received from these donors goes to those grants.

This year, more than 300 plants, as well as garden-related tools and decorative items were donated. Many, many rare and otherwise almost unobtainable plants added excitement and fun to our annual conference. Now, in the gardens of the SE members who attended the conference, are tangible and living mementos of a spectacular conference. What better way to spread new and unusual cultivars in the Southeast Region?
