The University of Georgia Trial Gardens in Athens, Georgia, were established in 1982. The primary functions of the garden have always been research, teaching and new crop introduction. The trials are planted in April and May, and consist of major and minor bedding classes, tropicals, vines, plantings of specialty annuals, more than 150 free-standing containers and three large perennial beds. The other major function of the garden is the evaluation and subsequent introduction of new crops for the greenhouse and landscape industries. The garden is open to professionals and the public.
