Photos: Photos of the above plants along with their information will be available eventually on the Western Hort website
(www.westernhort.org). If you can't wait, check out the individual nurseries' websites. Many of them have great eye candy of your favorite
plant(s).
Acknowledgements: Most of these plants were very generously donated to us by the participating nurseries. Please support their efforts to bring
us the best plants for our gardens. Note that many of the donating nurseries are wholesale only. The best way to obtain specimens of the
treasures you found at the Show is to bring this list to your local nursery or garden center and ask them to order your plants from the donating
nurseries listed above. Be sure to let them know you found their plants at the Western Hort Hot Plant Picks booth at the SF Flower and Garden
Show!
A display like this doesn't happen all by itself and this year, the Western Horticultural Society has had a lot of support from the California
Horticultural Society, California Rare Fruit Growers (Santa Clara County Chapter), Bay Area Garden Railway Society, and Sei Boku Bonsai
Kai. Thank you all for your help!
Western Hort and Cal Hort Meeting Information: Cal Hort meetings are held the 3rd Monday of every month (except December) at the County
Fair Building, SF Botanical Garden. Western Hort meetings are held the 2nd Wednesday, September through May (check website for location as it
may change periodically). Both groups host a wide variety of wonderful speakers, a Plant Forum discussion and a very lively Plant Raffle. It's a
great way to gain more horticultural knowledge, get some great plants and meet like-minded people all at the same time. BRING THIS PLANT LIST
AND GET IN TO ONE WESTERN HORT MEETING OR ONE CAL HORT MEETING FREE.
