I spent a lovely morning last week with my Mom. We drove to our favorite plant place,
Lost Mountain Nursery in Dallas, Georgia. I like Lost Mountain because they carry lots of perennials, native plants and shrubs, and shade-loving plants. They also carry beautiful ceramic pots and charming gardening knick-knacks. These are just a few things that caught my eye (and a few more that came home with me).

I'll be back soon to purchase herbs and tomato seedlings. What are your favorite plant nurseries? Any recommendations for the Atlanta area?
