These trees stood between the railroad tracks and Spiller Field's outfield, occasionally catching baseballs and providing a free perch for adventurous baseball fans, earning the nickname Spiller Magnolias. Trees Atlanta has propogated cuttings so that Spiller Magnolias will continue to thrive on the Beltline. (Jenni Girtman/ info@atlantaeventphotography.com)
