Were you aware that the Southeastern Flower Show has donated more than $1.2 million to the Atlanta Botanical Garden over the past 13 years?

The Atlanta Botanical Gardens web site states: Proceeds from the Show are presented annually to the Garden to support its education and conservation programs. The Show also provides the Garden with a forum for raising public support and community awareness. The Garden has used the Show's financial gift to support a wide variety of classes for adults and children, special lectures, summer day camp for kids and interpretive signage within the Garden."

Dogwood - sparkling berries in the cold December sun

Nandina - lovely colors and berries

Japanese Maple - all the colors on just one tree!

"Plant on a whim. Lay the footpath where your heart says it should be. Change things because you feel like it. Garden for the love of it."

(Lindley Karstens, American poet)

The 'last rose of summer' still blooming in December this year - and still with bugs!

The December Garden: There is always something wonderful to study in the garden. This year we have had such a late fall, the reds, yellows and oranges are still with us.

Hydrangea - bold and beautiful fall colors.

A happy home for some lucky bird - from the beautiful gift basket presented to Sterling Hill in appreciation for building this website.
