The new Garden Design placemats from Plant by Number will also be presented at the Southern Living® Plant Collection stand.

The placemats help garden centers expand their workshop offerings and boost spring sales. Be sure to stop by and ask the team about the placemats.
Bushel and Berry® will also introduce two new plants. Brew-Tea-Ful™ Tea Camellia is the first non-fruiting variety from Bushel and Berry®. This camellia produces three types of tea: soothing green tea, rich black tea and aromatic floral tea. Brew-Tea-Ful™ works well in patio containers or as a unique (and edible!) evergreen hedge. Poppin' Passion™ passion fruit thrives in warm climates while still offering the container-friendly and easy-to-grow characteristics you've come to expect from the brand. Its flowers are a host to native pollinators, something the modern gardener will love as much as the delicious fruits.
