Nominated by North Carolina nurserymen and selected by N.C. Cooperative Extension horticulture experts, the 2013 Showstopper Plants are “must have” plants for any Carolina garden. These featured plants are promising new cultivars or iron-clad favorites that will thrive across the region. The program is sponsored by the North Carolina Nursery & Landscape Association and North Carolina Cooperative Extension and plants are featured in Extension Gardener Learning Centers at home and garden shows throughout North Carolina.
