Intro to Gardening in the South - "Garden Substitutes That Shine in the South" - Tim Alderton

"When You Can't Grow Lilacs (and Other Favorites): Garden Substitutes That Shine in the South" It can be a shock for newcomers to discover that many beloved plants simply won’t thrive in North Carolina’s climate. Lilacs, delphiniums, lupines, and even some tropical favorites from further south can struggle here — but that doesn’t mean you have to go without beauty and fragrance in your garden. In this talk, horticulturist Tim will highlight the popular plants that gardeners wish they could grow in our region and introduce outstanding substitutes that flourish in the South. About Tim Tim Alderton grew up helping at his family’s small retail greenhouse near Brookville, PA, where they specialized in annuals and vegetables. He graduated from Pennsylvania State University in 2002 and soon after completed an internship at Callaway Gardens in Pine Mountain, GA, where he first discovered the richness of southern landscapes. In 2005, Tim moved to the Triangle and began working at Plant Delights Nursery, where he was introduced to a wide array of new plants. He joined the JC Raulston Arboretum staff in 2006, and today he brings more than 20 years of experience with the diverse palette of plants suited to the South’s hot, humid summers and relatively mild winters. Always eager to experiment with new species, Tim continues to expand his knowledge and share his passion for gardening in the region. This program was originally presented online and was recorded using a video conferencing service.
