This summer, the landscape industry is getting a bold new destination in Central Ohio: the Trial Garden at Green Legacy. Spanning over an acre of vibrant display beds, this project brings together plant breeders, growers, and landscape professionals to evaluate and celebrate top-performing plant varieties in real-world conditions.

The garden includes:

10,000 square feet of annual bedding plant displays
1,320 square feet of raised beds
Custom-designed beds created by each participating breeder
Shade structures and irrigation systems to support plant health and variety testing

Each participating sponsor—representing some of the most respected names in horticulture—was given the opportunity to design their own bed, making the garden a one-of-a-kind collection of creativity, color, and trial-worthy genetics.
