EVALUATION OF SELECTED PLANT MATERIAL
OBJECTIVE:
To collect and evaluate landscape plants that have aesthetic
and functional use for adaptability and nursery production in
the southeast.
PROCEDURE:
Plant material for production and consumer use will be collected
for evaluation. The plants will first be grown in containers
of appropriate size in light shade or full sun. After one or
two years, promising plants will be selected for further evaluation
and either planted in larger containers or field planted. Cuttings
are available to wholesale nurserymen upon request.
