PLANT SALES
Native plants are available for purchase generally from June to August at our self-serve plant stand. We have a small selection of shrubs and hardy perennials . Proceeds are used to enhance the gardens and support the center. All of our perennials are raised without the use of chemical fertilizers so they will be hardy in your landscape. |
