Good to Grow GardenIn an attempt to showcase plants that do well in our southern Indiana climate, we have set aside a “Good to Grow Trial Area” where we experiment with a variety of plants.
This garden is loosely modeled after the Plants of Merit at the Missouri Botanical Garden. For more information on their program and to see a list of plants that perform well in the lower Midwest, visit the Botanical Garden’s Plants of Merit.

•Easy to grow and maintain
