For the third year in a row, the American Horticultural Society will reprise its online auction. This year’s auction features exclusive opportunities for four people to have lunch and a garden tour with notable horticulturists and landscape designers throughout the United States.
Among the tours is Fallingwater in Pennsylvania with Landscape Architect Melissa Marshall, principal designer for the award winning firm MTR Landscape Architects. Ms. Marshall was instrumental in the recent renovation of the last great Frank Lloyd Wright house with its original setting, furnishings, and artwork intact.
Also available is a tour with Allan Armitage, internationally known for his multifaceted teaching and research in new plants for the garden and greenhouse at the University of Georgia Horticulture Gardens.
Visit http://www.ahs.org/auction/ for a full list of these exceptional experiences and more information about the auction process. The deadline to bid on the auction items is September 26, 2011, 5:00PM EST. All proceeds benefit the AHS’s outreach programs and stewardship of its River Farm headquarters.
