Nurseries Caroliniana
OMG! Spent the day doing a roadtrip to Nurseries Caroliniana in North Augusta, South Carolina, with my friend Carole Simpson (of Ashe-Simpson fame). Picked up all sorts of very cool plants for the Big House, as well as a couple of things for the garden at home. More details to follow, but one of the more "regular" things I picked up was a pair of calla lilies which reach 7 feet in height (with 5 foot tall leaves), and are winter hardy! For the time being, I'm a little zonked from spending so many hours in the car, but it was definitely worth the trip! Can't wait to go back.
