2009 Sale Dates

Please join us for the 2009 Perennial Spring Plant Sale, rain or shine:

Expert Sister Plant growers are on hand to answer your gardening questions and to personally assist you. Look for our purple visors! We love sharing our plants and gardening expertise with you.

The crowd comes early on Saturday to get the best selection. Although it may get a little hectic at times, the camaraderie and festivity during the sale is lots of fun.

The sale is run yearly in conjunction with the Reading Garden Club Sale. The annual Reading Garden Club Sale is just down the street.

The sale continues as self-serve, with "How-To" instructions posted.

Note: We no longer hold a clearance after the sale. Plants remaining at the end of the sale are donated to local park, public space, island beautification projects, or other charitable programs.

Pricing

We grow the majority of our plants ourselves, so we can sell them to you at reasonable prices.

• $2 to $4 for starter-sized plants.
• $5 and up for shrubs, trees, large, rare, or prized varieties.

Our prices reflect the maturity, ease of propagation, or rarity of a plant. Our aim is to sell healthy, home-grown plants at reasonable prices.
