Franklinia a rare tree with Bartram's flowering tale
The article traces the Franklinia alatamaha history from Bartram journeys in Georgia to the plant's cultivation in Philadelphia. It notes the wild population vanished by 1803, yet the species now thrives in gardens from Massachusetts to Florida. Propagation remains straightforward via seeds and cuttings, with care about drainage and soil acidity, and most existing trees descend from Bartram’s collection.
