Green Sheets
The Green Sheets list the plants brought in for display and discussion in the Plant Forum at the monthly meetings of the Southern California Horticulture Society. The Green Sheets also describe a selection of any new and unusual plants, and provide expert information about their horticultural requirements and garden use. All of the plants are grown in local gardens or purchased at local nurseries.
Green Sheets from 1999 to date are listed below and can be downloaded as PDFs. (Adobe Reader is required to read PDFs; free download here.) To search for a specific plant or species, the Google Search box below will search all pages and PDFs on our site.
More recent Green Sheets (2009 and later) are also included in our Newsletter.
All Green Sheets are copyright the Southern California Horticultural Society. All Rights Reserved.
Selected Plants for Southern California Gardens is a compilation of plants from the Green Sheets. Compiled by Joan Citron, this softcover book was published by SCHS in 2000. Check our Publications page for order information.
