We'll plant just one or dozens of containers, matched to your decor. We specialize in beautiful, healthy, highest-quality plants, many of which you won't see just anywhere. Karen Johnson worked until recently at Debbie Crawford's garden shop in Scottsboro putting together your custom planters. She is an Alabama Master Gardener, former president of the local chapter. Before coming to Scottsboro, she worked for a wholesale greenhouse. Karen's plantings are always beautiful. She works hard to get balance in color, shape, height and foliage. Her gardens change with the seasons, and look good the entire growing season. She has the knowledge and the artistic eye to make a "bunch of plants" look elegant, but not stuffy; informal, but not random. But don't take our word for it -- call or e-mail her. She loves to talk plants and show off her gardens!
