The Grateful Dead once sang 'sugar magnolia blossom's blooming' and gardens throughout Georgia are nothing short of a 'Sunshine Daydream' with the blooming of May flowers. The Peach State is home to more than 3,600 native plant species, making Georgia one of the most botanically rich states in the southeastern United States, according to the Georgia Native Plant Society.
