โItโs an honorโ: Nelson County farm brings 400 plants to White House Rose Garden
LYNCHBURG, Va. โ The Saunders Brothers' boxwood farm in Nelson County is a reliable source for gardens across the region and country, but they didnโt expect the White House to call and request 400 of their plants for the famous Rose Garden. We had them in larger sizes, which the White House was very interested in,โ said Saunders. The Saunders Brothers are growing about half a million boxwood plants on this farm, so they already knew which ones they wanted when the White House called. โThis variety right here is green beauty. The boxwood plants speak for themselves โ after all, the White House is pleased.
