Paris, Tenn.–The already bountiful Atkins-Porter Botanical Garden in Paris will be even more so, thanks to the hard work of volunteers who planted some 2,000 spring bulbs on a recent morning. The crew had help from Master Gardener Jimmy Williams. Garden Caretaker Julie Leach said, “Jimmy was instrumental and helping me select and order the bulbs that we used and placing them in the garden for consistent blooming from spring through May. We wouldn’t be able to have such a beautiful garden without all his expertise and knowledge so grateful to all he brings to the garden.” The garden is located at 311 Jackson St., Paris.
