History of Plant Delights Nursery/Juniper Level Botanic Garden (Zoom presentation)
November 3 @ 10:00 am – 12:00 pm
Juniper Level Botanic Garden, JLBG, was established in 1986 when Raleigh native Tony Avent and his wife Michelle purchased a 2.2 acre abandoned sandy loam tobacco field (9241 Sauls Rd.) in the community of Juniper in Southern Wake County (central North Carolina).
Today JLBG is a world-renowned botanic garden serving as a repository of plant genetics from around the globe. Our ex-situ plant conservation goal is to actively promote and preserve botanic diversity by sharing plants with gardeners around the world through Plant Delights Nursery.
Join Tony Avent on this zoom journey of JLBG/PDN’s history over the past 38 years!
