Charlotte, NC

My home staging chapter - Charlotte IAHSP Regional Chaper - exhibited at the North Carolina Association of REALTORS® Expo in Charlotte, NC Oct. 5-8. We had a comfy seating area in our booth and had our chapter PowerPoint presentation scrolling continuously. The PPt with all the "before & after" pictures grabbed people's attention and provided excellent information about home staging and about our chapter. It was a great 3 days.

2. UNC-CHARLOTTE BOTANICAL GARDENS
9201 University City Blvd, Charlotte, NC 28223

If plants, flowers and gardens are your forte, then this is the spot for YOU . With exceptional varieties of horticulture represented at the gardens, you will not believe the beauty that this beautiful setting beholds. The Botanical Gardens are located right on the campus of UNCC off Highway 49N (north Charlotte) and welcome groups as well. If your group would like to attend and there are more than 10 of you, please contact the Gardens to schedule so that the staff may accomodate your visit.

"Most of the activity centers around the 3-acre Harwood Garden that reaches a flowery peak in summer. Seek some shade in the cool 7-acre Van Landingham Glen, a woodland garden that highlights native North Carolina plants. Don't miss the McMillan Greenhouse complex, a collection of eight themed rooms accented with flowerbeds and a bog garden with carnivorous plants. Best of all? It's all free."
