It’s been quite a while since we went to Givens & despite the destruction caused by Hurricane Helene there were still lots of great plants to see. Thanks, Kent, for showing us around. Photography by Penny Longhurst & Jim Poling.

Botanical plant names seem to change almost every day, but for now we use those approved by ITIS, the Integrated Taxonomic Information System. Plants that are non-native to North America are indicated by an asterisk (*) placed after the species name. Click on any picture to zoom & enter the slide show.
