Extension Publications
Vegetable Garden Calendar
(C 943)
The recommendations in this circular are based on long-term average dates of the last killing frost in the spring and first killing frost in the fall.

(B 987)
This publication focuses on native trees, shrubs and woody vines for Georgia. It is not our intent to describe all native species — just those available in the nursery trade and those that the authors feel have potential for nursery production and landscape use. Rare or endangered species are not described. Information on each plant is provided according to the following categories: Common Name(s)/Botanical Name/Family, Characteristics, Landscape Uses, Size, Zones and Habitat.
