Plant Help
Folks walk through our doors every day with a question. How do I plant this tree? What's eating my tomatoes? What should I put in the ground this month? After years of growing here in Livingston, Tennessee, we love answering every one of them, so now we're putting that know-how online, too. We're a real Overton County garden center that grows what it sells, right here in zone 7a, and we're glad to help you grow it well. Here's where to start.
