50% Off Plant Sale



 

This is the third year running we are holding a 50% off sale in December. It's clean-up time at the Nursery in preparation for the upcoming winter chill, and this is your opportunity to find treasures at half price. This year we'll have many trees, including Podocarpus henkelii – a beautiful small conifer from South Africa, Luma apiculata – a small broad-leafed evergreen from Chile, and the dwarf columnar european beech, Fagus sylvatica 'Fastigiata'. On top of that, we'll have many seedling Califonia incense cedars and hundreds of other plants, in many cases only one or two of each kind. Please note, these bargain prices are limited to the Saturday sale, and don't apply to plants for sale in the Arbor.

Speaking of the Arbor, we'll feature holiday greens this month. Some of our gardeners reserve their conifer pruning until December so that the beautiful cut greens don't go to waste. We will even have some exquisite wreaths for sale hand-made by Garden volunteers. Come to the December special 50% Off Sale or visit the Arbor and support the Garden this holiday season!
