Barnyard Nursery

56 Firetower Road

Near Fort Valley, Georgia

On Wednesday, 27 March 2024 My Bride and I visited this establishment to pre-view the plants in preparation for April Garden Club Meetings.  The Nursery is on a dirt road and appears quite quaint.  However the selection of plants and flower pots was impressive.

I was in the plant procurement mode and I acquired two pots and many plants.  Here is a photo of the two pots with planting complete.  The plant selection process was easy because I needed shade loving plants because the deck is mostly in the shade. 

                         


Now for the individual plant selections:

The Tall plant in each pot is Dieffenbachia and here is a view  taken from the top.


The Lime Green plant is a Heuchera also known as a Coral Bell plant.


The final plant is a Rex Begonia.  I chose this because of it's interesting color and to provide more drama to the planting.


The Pots were from Italy and this is the tag!


The Owner of Barnyard Nursery recommended we use this brand of potting soil which is available from ACE Hardware on Riverside Drive here in Macon, Georgia.  It is loose and provides excellent drainage for the plants I selected.


In conclusion I am a very happy customer of Barnyard Nursery and looking forward to the Garden Club Visit in April.
