Donating to Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden

Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden

Recently, on Twitter, I heard that Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden was looking to expand their Sarracenia collection. I was more than happy to donate some plants to their collection.
I ended up sending a set of four Sarracenia pots, some from Paul Barden's great crosses that he shared with me. (Thanks again Paul!). Those are starting to look really fantastic!

Some of the #Sarracenia seedlings @paulbarden gave me are really starting to look phenomenal. pic.twitter.com/yr09ytjr0U

It was my first attempt at shipping potted plants, and I think it went alright. They looked a bit roughed up after shipping, but I bet that they'll all make it through just fine.

Thank you @NG_CP_Blog for your Sarracenia donation to @lewisginter. These will grow up and be part of our collection! pic.twitter.com/tilYtT4h9C

It's always an awesome feeling to know that some plants you helped raised will be seen by a few thousand people over the course of the next few years.
