Our Mission:
The Charleston Horticultural Society equips garden enthusiasts and horticultural professionals across
the South Carolina Lowcountry to cultivate community, resiliency, and beauty through gardening.
CHARLESTON HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY
Welcome to the enchanting world of the Charleston Horticultural Society, where a passion for cultivating beauty mingles with a deep reverence for the natural world. Nestled in the heart of the South Carolina Lowcountry, our Society is dedicated to the preservation, education, and celebration of all things horticulture.
At the Charleston Horticultural Society, we believe that gardens are not just places of aesthetics, but also spaces that connect people, nurture the environment, and provide a sanctuary for both flora and fauna. We carry forward a legacy of fostering a love for gardening, conservation, and the appreciation of the natural wonders around us.

Did you know?
With the help of the incredibly talented Blake Suarez, we’ve refreshed our logo in a way that feels both familiar and full of new energy.
But before we look ahead, it’s important to honor where we started. Our original logo (left), designed by Karl Beckwith-Smith, has long been a beautiful reflection of who we are. Centered around the native Zephyranthes atamasca, the Atamasco Lily, or Rain Lily, it captured the delicate, resilient spirit of the Lowcountry and our deep commitment to cultivating beauty, community, and connection through horticulture.
That foundation hasn’t changed. It’s simply grown.
Our refreshed logo still draws inspiration from that beloved Atamasco Lily, but now carries a bit more movement, personality, and playfulness, much like The HORT itself today. It’s a nod to our roots and a step forward into what’s next.
