Mary, Mary Quite Contrary

How does your garden grow?

Tomorrow the best and the brightest from 61 schools arrive at NMTC to participate in the annual PLANET competition. It's the equivalent of horticulture's "March Madness". Only one can be the winner!

The events are open to visitors....come on out Saturday March 29 to see the very best in the country show their stuff.


NMTC Library has a pretty good horticulture collection. There is another resource in GALILEO by Ebsco - Garden Literature Index which provides access to articles about gardens and plants, including topics such as horticulture, botany, garden and landscape design & history, ecology, plant and garden conservation, garden management, and horticultural therapy. A highlight of the database is its focus on environmentally sustainable horticultural and design practices.

The password to use GALILEO at home is available from your Georgia librarian.
