I'm in Lawrenceville, just up 85 from Atlanta, and am interested in locations where everyone shops. I have a Pikes and Home Depot/Lowes not far from me, but even my Pikes is very limited. I'm especially interested in Mom&Pop operations, because I think they are the best ones.... I used to buy all my plants from a 70-something lady with two greenhouses in her backyard, but she's practically in Tennessee up 57, so I don't make the trip anymore. Anyone have resources they'd like to share?

Where do you shop?
Well, there's WalMart in Cordele and there's Home Depot in Cordele and of the two I would rather shop at WalMart. Our local Ace hardware has a lease department nursery that is an off shoot of a landscaping operation. On occasion they have some neat plants. I do a fair amount of online catalog shopping. Brent and Becky's and Iris City are two of my favorites.
When ever I go back to Birmingham to see my mother I stop at Plant Odyssey. I love Libby's selections and prowling her lot is a bit like a mini safari.

I go to a lovely herb nursery in Dahlonega or to Jackson.
