Regular readers here know of the importance of the late Dennis Dodge to conifer collectors. We're reporting this week that ACS has acquired 118 plants from the estate --many quite rare and unusual -- that will be part of a benefit auction at the ACS Regional Meeting in Rochester, NY, in September.

The story includes a list of the inventory available. Links also to details about the weekend, garden tours, registration, etc. It's an ACS-member event but there is time to join so you can get in on the sale.
