It has been a tradition since the inception of the garden to provide a place to commemorate friends and family members through the gift of a tree, shrub, or brick given to the Hart County Botanical Garden. The first recipient was our initial patron, Anne King. She was responsible for the vision of a botanical garden in Hart County. She has been memorialized with a very lovely, serene shade garden named appropriately, The Anne King Garden. You will notice as you walk through the garden, that many others have been memorialized or honored here as well with commemorative trees, shrubs and bricks. The following are some suggested commemorative reasons to purchase a tree, shrub, or brick: Grandparents Day Mother's Day Father's Day Retirement Military Sports Recognition New Job Weight Loss Birthday Missing You Moving Away Holiday Wedding Other Get Well Wishes Bar Mitzvah New Home Anniversary New Baby Promotion Quit Smoking New Neighbor Special Teacher School Merits Graduation Master Gardener Completion A list of tree varieties and prices are available in the kiosk to the left side of the main entry gate and on this website.
