For the first time in roughly a decade, the Georgia Native Plant Society
is canceling its annual April plant sale at Piedmont Park because of the
drought.
The news was recently announced to the society's 1,500 members, said
Marcia Winchester, vice president of the 13-year-old nonprofit
organization. The decision came after months of monitoring the drought's
effect on local growers, as well as the organization's own defunct plant
rescue efforts.
